I lived in Paris for a year so I've become quite a macaron snob. Last year, I participated (as in taste-tested) in International Macron day in the GTA. The closest thing to the real deal (by which I mean the macaron standards set by Laduree is Petit Thuet followed by Bobette et Belle).

re: corrinnecareens
Curious if you have ever tried the Point G ones (either in Montreal, or from Sweets if that shop mentioned above is still bringing them in?
I picked some up from Point G directly the other week. 40 for like $52 all in. I find them quiet good!
EDIT - Turns out that Sweets mentioned above has closed. Curious, any other places that imports Point G macaroons in GTA?

Having tried Sweets a few times, they seem to be the second best for my tastes, in the GTA, next to Thuet. When spot on they have great texture, though a bit too chewy at times however their flavour is a little too subtle for my tastes.
I would avoid the Sweet Definition macarons sold at Whole Foods - STALE!!!!

Sweets in Heartland. Macarons are basically as good as Nadege in Toronto, at least when I went there. Prices are Toronto prices, so it may cost a pretty penny.
