Very bad news came today, Payard has closed earlier than expected.

Apparently, they are looking for a new space... so hopefully we won't have to wait long... and hopefully (for me at least) the new space will also be on the Upper East Side. It's such a shame because the current space was so beautifully built-out, it really made you feel tranported to Paris... The unfortunate closure is due to a rent dispute... the landlord was asking for a very large increase. Very sad.
I'm glad I made in it last week to pick up some macarons, it may be a while until I get more...
