A couple of weeks ago I tried Adriano Zumbo’s macaroons, and while they are really good, I think the Lindt cafe does a better job. They’re bigger (and hence more expensive), fluffier (oh so fluffy) and I think the overall flavour and texture is better at Lindt. Some of Adriano’s were a little too sweet for my liking, but that’s just me.

There’s so many flavours at the Lindt cafe, making it hard for an indecisive person like myself to choose. I ended up picking a handful of different flavours, the most interesting ones were Salty Caramel, Champagne and Olive Oil. My advice: steer clear of the Olive Oil one. I couldn’t quite figure out what it tasted like, it’s just odd. I would however, highly recommend Salty Caramel. As for Champagne … meh, didn’t mind it.

I was pretty impressed with the macaroons at Lindt, but I’ve heard rumours of even better macaroons at La Renaissance at the Rocks. Guess there’s only one way to find out…
