They are softer, without the subtle crunch that Mike's has, but they're a touch richer and yummy, too!Brian Grossmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13356404947723619895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3796952210677517538.post-69100011143975630152011-10-09T00:15:16.907-04:002011-10-09T00:15:16.907-04:00Just got back from Boston and stopped by Mikes.

I came home and Googled hoping to find a recipe and found your blog. I love almond and knew the minute I took a bite, this wasn't the coconut version and must be made with almond paste. I was pleasantly surprised and now I'm on the hunt for a recipe so that I can make my own!betsykimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16507659027561456761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3796952210677517538.post-86836151505586246242009-01-16T18:04:00.000-05:002009-01-16T18:04:00.000-05:00I too have been obsessing over Mike's Pastry pista...I too have been obsessing over Mike's Pastry pistachio macaroons since November when I tried them. I had them one night and insisted on cabbing across the city again the next night so I could have them again. I've suggested to my girlfriend that we move to Boston, into an apartment above the bakery, just so I can have them frequently. I don't think she's going for it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3796952210677517538.post-59539482380253955552008-09-30T15:17:00.000-04:002008-09-30T15:17:00.000-04:00I discovered your blog while doing a search for a ...I discovered your blog while doing a search for a pistachio macaroon recipe like those at Mike's Pastry in Boston. I was just there this past weekend and bought a few on a whim since I do love macaroons. I have been dreaming of having more since!
