Here is my tip to get beautiful macarons : Once you've made your shells with the dough on a sheet of greaseproof paper then place it in the fridge during 2 or 3 hours (till they become hard, when you put your finger on top of the shells, it must not stick and be hard as a shell). Then you just need to put it in a pre-heated oven and you should get those specific foots. If its still not working, it might be because of the preparation. Just tell me and i could give you my receipe. (my apologies for the mistakes :)) Good Luck Quentin from Paris Hey !

I’m French and I would like to say that all of you are right !! Ladurée, Pierre Hermé, Dalloyau and Hévin all make delicious macarons…
You are absolutly right (sorry for the wrong spell …), macarons are supposed to have a delicate crust and a slightly chewy cookie that melts in your mouth !!!
Good luck !

I thinkg perfect macaron is some what a personal preference. My husband bought me macarons from Paris from 4 different shops Laduree, Pierre Herme, Dalloyau and Hevin. They are all good...not just good great. The common character is just like you said...egg shell crust on the outside and slight chewy on the inside. I would say people judge those macaron from Paris from their flavors of the filling. Laduree has very pronounce flavor however you can only have a few and then it becomes overwhelm. But it is still my most favorite. The filling has very strange texture, like cooked starch but tasteful. Pierre herme has very light texture comparing to others. The flavors are very creative. You can have a lot without feeling too much from the lightness. But if you just want one or two pieces, I would recommend Laduree. Dalloyau is also ok...no striking character. Hevin has very good chocolate one...mousse like filling. Most of all, I love macaron from Sprungli...he bought it from Zurich. I think I love it the most coz the filling is very very light melt in the mouth, may be from the combination of whipping cream and butter. Hi…I am one of the macaron fan as well.
