At the famous Brasserie Lipp, I've had horrible meals. Only once I was satisfied. It's very expensive for what you get, and the food wasn't that great. I got the left over chicken from lunch time which was too burnt and extremely dry...

LOL, Joe, that's why the friend gets the Kirsch gourmandise while I go for the walnut.

No Biggs, no Trader Joe's in Hawaii. Maybe I can get some in Sonoma/San Francisco when I fly up in July.

Beatchick, the people at Hotel Bonaparte, literally just across the street from Herme, told us that Laduree has better macarons, and after eating a few from each, I must agree! They sure do line up outside Herme, though!
