What is your idea of heaven?

  1. Recchiuti, San Francisco
  2. La Maison Du Chocolat, London
  3. Spruengli, Zurich
  4. Richart, Paris
  5. Kodaikanal homemade (Couldn't find them online)
A colleague is visiting Kodaikanal and I recommended the chocolates to him. That is where the chocolate-y lunch discussion started at work and ended with people listing their favorite chocolate stores around the world. What is yours?

  7. Can I add unknown little shop in Lucerne that served the yummiest homemade chocolate/milkshake??
    Directions: opposite to Lucerne train station, across the lake. Shop is sandwiched between some restaurants and serves only ice creams and milk shakes and chocolate.

  9. cluelessness: Swiss choco fan, eh? :)
    Mama-Mia: The true chocolate connoisseurs are the dark choco fans like you, I believe. :) I can do up-to 65% or so but 85% is an acquired taste, no? Yes, I have had Freys, thanks to co-workers. :)
