After finishing the movie at AMC Pacific Place, I told godbro XO that I'd like to try the eclairs from L'Eclair de Genie even though his previous eclair wasn't all that great. I said why don't we split one and see if it's any better that we're eating it right away, and he said ok.When we reached the counter, there was only 1 eclair left, and I bought it anyway. When I was at the cashier paying for the eclair, the new batch of eclairs arrived. The cashier didn't ask me if I wanted a fresh one an
When we reached the counter, there was only 1 eclair left, and I bought it anyway. When I was at the cashier paying for the eclair, the new batch of eclairs arrived. The cashier didn't ask me if I wanted a fresh one and gave me the one that was sitting in the showcase.There's a seating area opposite the counter, so godbro XO and I sat down to eat the eclair right away.

Upon leaving I decided to ask the cashier how long had the eclair been sitting in the showcase, and she told me it was delivered when the shop opened at 10:30 that morning, so it had been sitting in the showcase for about 4 hours.
The eclair would have been perfect if the pate a choux was the right texture. Maybe the owner needs to adjust the turnover time as the humidity is much higher in Hong Kong than Paris, or maybe godbro XO and I need much better luck next time we try out the eclairs!
