Pistachio Tart

This was my other impulse purchase from Le Pain Quotidien... The pistachios lent a lovely green hue and a flair of novelty (when was the last time you saw a pistachio tart?). The kicker? The base is made of marzipan (almond paste)! Alas, this all sounded better than it tasted. It was fine but not extraordinary. Basically, I wouldn't vouch for this place as I would Extraordinary Desserts (San Diego), Portos (Glendale), Scoops (Los Angeles)...
