My friend and I tried a sample of one of the cookies and fell for the trap.

Somehow it ended up costing over 65 Euros! The sales associate said ours was by far the heaviest she had encountered! We have enough cookies to last us for quite a while! It's not cheap, but it's worth every bite!

Love La Cure Gourmande! The store is colorful, smells like sugary delights, and is filled with a…read morevariety of French cookies, chocolates, nougat, and other sweets. This is definitely a must stop when visiting Marseille. The SAs are very friendly and constantly offering whole samples of cookies, chocolates, and candies. Delicious! I think I gained a pound just trying everything! Prices are a bit high but not unreasonable. The packaging is equally colorful, whimsical, and oh so French. Plus if you prefer, they wrap each item as a gift. Score! I really enjoyed their variety of nougat, cookies, and marzipan candies. It was tough deciding which flavors to get since they were all so yummy! Apparently the store is doing well and is expanding in the U.S. They currently have a store in NYC, and have plans for SF.

I let the women behind the counter make a selection because every single flavor sounded divine. While I was there, I bought a salad for the train ride home as well. Fortunately for my babysitter, the salad was for me and not for her, because it was one of the worst I've had in a looooooooooong time. Since she devoured the macarons in one sitting and raved about how fresh and yummy they were, I plan on getting a box for myself the next time (while staying far away from the salads, as well you should..)

I bought some sour not chocolates and then grabbed my morning cafe. They didn't speak much English, but we were able to get by with little French and English.

You cannot come to France and miss a chance to experience the coffee culture. I don't even drink…read morethe stuff yet I knew I needed to visit a cafe. We chose this place at random but we hit gold! The grandiose store front does leave an impression on you. The rich smell of roasting coffee beans is enough to wake anyone up. This place has an easy to understand setup. Long counter on the left for the cafe and a long counter on the right for the store. As we were not purchasing any beans to take home the store with it's seemingly endless selection of different coffee blends didn't get much attention from us. The wife ordered a coffee and I a hot chocolate. I don't remember seeing any tables, just one long counter that snaked it's way around the edge of the store with stool after stool lined up. The wife gave her cappuccino a 10 out of 10. This is coming from a woman who's highest score at any Australian cafe has been 3! She is absolutely the pickiest person when it comes to coffee. I've tasted very good hot chocolates, but this one... this one... I've never had my breath taken away by a hot chocolate before. It was so silky smooth and rich in chocolate taste that I was considering marrying it. The finest blend of chocolate and hot fresh milk. The waitress seemed very happy with our praise. The prices were reasonable and the service was fast. I wouldn't hesitate to come back here again.
