4:00pm apricot tart

08-20 apricot tart
Payard rarely disappoints but today's apricot tart surpasses normal expectations. Plump seasonal apricots, juicy and just this side of sweet, on a light puff pastry catapult our afternoon treat into a higher plane. Almost as memorable as the strawberry tart from Petrossian.

Yup! Chopped up bits of pistachios! Don't they look a little caper-ish?
