Died and Gone to heaven


Pros: Watch chocolate being made in their factory thru window in the store.
Cons: I don't live in Brooklyn

This is a chocolate lover's paradise. Just getting near the door fills your senses with the sweetly bitter fragrance of chocolate. Once inside, you're surrounded by an astounding variety of brilliant variations on chocolate. There are small chocolate squares with that combine the cocoa flavor with the mildly spicey ginger. Fist-size chocolate chunk cookies seem to be built around chocolate bars. And the hot chocolate is rich, sweet, a little bitter, and piping hot -- any thicker and you'd need to chew it.
And the Easter Bunnies are works of art in themselves.
