Tous Le Jours Macarons. Food Review.

February 01, 2013 0
Tous Le Jours Macarons. Food Review.

You know that I craved for Macarons last time but I didn't review them so I will here. You know. But I mentioned that their flavors are Chocolate, Green Tea, Vanilla, Mango, and Strawberry respectively.


I am actually assuming that they just have 5 flavors available because of the packaging. And since there's only one Green Tea Macaron left, my cousin just got 4 and for some reason, they didn't place it in this package which I think is really unfair, unwise, and all. They placed it in a paper bag which is like questionable for me. And when we opened it at Starbucks, some of the shells came off already. 


Basically they all taste alright except for one. MANGO!

So let me start with this thing okay? I actually ate the Green Tea first because I'm most curious with this. I mean, it's either it's so good that only one is left or it's not good so it's just a left over from the previous day or two. Who knows? When I tasted it, it's actually kind of good. But not really that "good" it's pretty normal.

The next flavor I tasted was Mango. It was bad. I mean, whoever thought of that flavor is probably sleepy or something. It's obvious that the thing is artificially flavored and it's just so sweet. And I agree with my cousin when she said that it actually taste like candy. Which is not the best way to go. No likey.

I tasted Vanilla next which I think was a neutralizer. I appreciated it very much. I got confused though because I didn't understand the flavor. I don't know if I liked it or not.

Then comes Strawberry. Which is probably my favorite! It's like, good. And it's that kind of "good" I was so happy with it. Me likey.

And lastly, Chocolate which I didn't appreciate that much because I was drinking a chocolate drink so I really can't taste it that much. But I think it's nothing foul or something because you know, I probably should have known. That's all! :)

Hell of a Day.

Hell of a Day.
It's Comprehensive Exams Day 1 and you know all know what it means. HELL MONTH NA! And it's really toxic because we're all busy on our duty so it's not like we have that much time to study comprehensively and answer 100 questions perfectly. Asar.

So I had thesis class early in the afternoon and had exams at 3-5 pm and I was really thinking of going home already but I thought otherwise. I decided to go to Mall of Asia to have some MACARONS. Because it's been a while since I had some. And I think I effin deserve a break. Okay so I actually thought of riding the MOA EYE but then I was like, meh. I just don't think 150 pesos is worth it for a short ride. Next time.

But we did take pictures with it because it's PRETTY.


It reminds me of Odaiba's Rainbow Bridge a little bit. It changes its colors too. Look.


I like the colors of the rainbow better though. But whatevs.


I was telling my cousin that there's not much to view up there because the bay is kind of dark and stuff so what's the point? But since there's a mini amusement park very near the place, I guess you'll be able to see the lights and stuff. Somehow. I don't know. 

Okay so after taking pictures, we then decided to find Tous Le Jours which I just recently discovered is PRONOUNCED as TU-LE-JURU because I was like TU-LE-JU-ing all the time. I would like to apologize to my victims. Hahaha. So when we entered the bakery, we were looking for the macarons and we can't see it so we asked the lady if they have it and she gladly accompanied us to the counter where they are placed. 


They're pretty too. This day is just full of colors. Except the tests I had. I don't know why I even mentioned the test but let's all forget that already. So the MACARONS are available in Chocolate, Green Tea, Vanilla, Mango, and Strawberry respectively. I got all the flavors because I really wanted to try them all. 


And then as we were walking to our way somewhere, I got confused by this and then I asked my cousin to enlighten me and she said that it's a statue of Manny Pacquiao and all other workers daw. And I was like, okay I should have a picture with that. Pero thinking of it now, Manny Pacquiao isn't a profession or something, yeah? Oh well. Nasa gitna pa ha.


We went straight to Starbucks for some drinks and also a place where we could try out the MACARONS we bought earlier. In Starbucks, I ordered their Signature Hot Chocolate which was recommended by my co-intern and it was really nice. I like it.


My cousin got a Mocha Frappuccino which made her shiver as we go home by the way. Hahaha sorreh na. Ikaw kasi eh. It was a tiring but fun day for us. Imagine, I got home at like 11-ish pm already and I still had to attend my duty at 8 am the next day? TOXIC.
