Maison Blanc Hampstead - Camden

This restaurant is not my ideal choice, but if I happen to be nearby one of their handful of locations, I have no problem stopping in with my sweet tooth and two children. The macarons and lemon tart are delicious, and the presentation is impressive. The prices are a bit high for my liking, but the quality of the baked goods makes it worth it. Overall, I think that's the most important aspect of a good bakery! Just ask flat eric.

Maison blanc, located in Hampstead, holds a special place in my heart as it is where my blogging journey began. Starting as a hobby while I was a student, I was thrilled to be invited to review this restaurant. Returning to the roots where my food blog began filled me with emotion. Although some of my friends may not understand my passion for blogging, I am deeply committed to it. Maison Blanc has been a staple in the area for over two decades, starting with the first Maison Blanc pastry series in Oxford.

Once, on a sunny Saturday in Hampstead, two friends tried unsuccessfully to escape a hangover. "Ah, that was a rough one," one of them said. "I know the perfect cure for our ailment. We have to go for a café latte in a French bakery, founded by none other than Raymond Blanc!" the other exclaimed. "We must go right away," so the pair quickly grabbed a table outside in the sun. The service was lacking, the table was dirty and never really cleaned, and the waiter seemed a bit unfriendly. Despite all that, the cup of coffee was much needed and very enjoyable. The end.
