The Patisserie

Very popular patisserie at Alamoana center. (Entrance facing Parking near the Lanai food court ) Besides pastries and cakes, they have good selection of hot and cold drinks menu. Go early….but not too early. I missed out on their strawberry shortcakes at 2pm on Friday. If you have something specific to try, go earlier. And it seems to be based on your luck as well, since not everything are available at the time of the opening. I like their cake because it is not too sweet. It is very close to what you can expect outside of Paris or Tokyo.

If you are craving real french pastries, or japanese style sweets, this patisserie is the one to go to. We tried 3 pastries, and we loved them, we even took 2 to go. The macaroons were delicious, excellent texture, the lemon tart was crunchy and sweet but not too sweet, and it had a bit of sour from the lemon, amazing. The Japanese cheesecake, I can’t remember the name, it was soft and creamy, so good. The teas were also really good, the service was excellent, it’s a small place, with two little tables, but you can always take the desserts to go.
