Paris vs. New York

 Looking for pink in New York takes extra effort. And it may smack you in the face like this giant heart candy (an artwork) on Madison Avenue.

 I tasted tiny pink sugar hearts in an UES(upper East side) penthouse on Saturday. They're from Chambre de Sucre (Japanese). You can win some you go to Une Deux Senses.

 New York is full of Paris' pinks like this Eiffle Tower at Pylones...

 Comparisons are not odious if you're reading Vahram Muratyan's Paris Versus New York-an adorable gift book for the Paris/New York obsessed.

 A few sample pages just in case you haven't clicked on Muratyan's FAB blog...

 I beg to differ with Mr. Muratyan on this page...

 With Parisian's cupcake obsession...

 And New York's macaron obsession (these are from Patisserie Ceci-Cela) the tables have turned don't you think?

 Amelie vs. Carrie...mais oui

 Ralph is better doing a pink trench...

 And French Jacadi on Madison does perfect French stripes.

 Both towns are neck and neck...

When it comes to little shop dogs don't you think?

Cupcakes Berko

Cheescake and cupcakes... What's not to love? BUT is this why you come to Paris? OUI! If it's BERKO in the Marais at 23 rue Rambuteau 75004

I'm not even a cupcake person but...

These little minis are soooo enticing.

Now Berko has long rectangular tartes in citron meringue too...

What to get? The citron meringue mini cuppie? Which one would you fall for?

OR the long tarte thing? The tarte thing won out bien sur - more lemon meringue to love. It was just as good as it looks, maybe even better. Note the pecan tartes behind and it ain't even Thanksgiving!?

Berko has new little mini round tartes too...

I thoughtfully waited until after lunch before showing you these...

BONJOUR BERKO!
