"Congo Cookies"?
Filed under: Blog— by joe @ 12:09:32 pm 
Pastry Chef Camille files this report from the Continent:
Funnily enough, I saw a pile of coconut macaroons in a bakery here in Paris yesterday. They were called "congolais." Just thought you'd like to know that even here in macaron land, macaroons do exist. :)
Turns out those Parisians really do have taste!
