Monplaisir Delicacies [International Correspondent]

Bakery: Monplaisir Delicacies 
Address: Inside CORE Shopping Centre, Calgary AB 
Website: http://monplaisir.ca
Style: Macarons
Price: $$-$$$ 

This is an authentic French patisserie located inside the mall. I guess I should say "mini-patisserie", because they only have macarons. If you love macarons, though, this is probably the place to go in Calgary since they not only have a lot of flavours, both classic and unique ones, but they're good.  They're not cheap (more than $2 each), but that's what you have to pay for quality macarons.

First was a Japanese Sakura flavour, the other was cookies and cream. They're not the best I've ever had, but these were very good. The shell was soft and not crumbly like I had before, so that means they were fresh. The cookies and cream one had like an extra dough layer in the middle and was the best one -- that one alone should be given 4/4. It was recommended by the worker and I agree.
