[Cafe Iota] Character Macaroons

[Cafe Iota]

528 S Western Ave

Los Angeles, CA

Although Iota is located at the middle of Koreatown, it is majorly loved by non-Korean consumers.

With their sophisticated design and wide variety of menus ranging from dinner plates and desert, it has

become an 'it' place to visit when hanging out in Koreatown. 

  

Not only they present western-style dishes, they also have fushioned-Korean dishes like omelette with fried rice inside(right).

 

Now up-to-date, Iota has presented their limited-edition character macaroons of six flavors. From top : honey , blueberry , strawberry , (sorry can't remember) , birthday cake , and chocolate flavor!

In my own opinion, the best flavor was strawberry. It contained real strawberry jam instead of artificial flavored paste. The worst was honey flavor at the very top, which also contained real honey that you can get it at Ralphs or other grocery markets. However, it did not match with the dough of macaroon and was no 'harmony' at all. Chocolate flavor was also okay, all the other ones were not my type.

I believe it was around 2.75 each, which isn't bad for a macaroon which other stores sell it for 3.00. Also, the design is unique. It is worth a try!:)
