Not What I expected

Let me just tell you that I was so anxious to check this place out because I LOVE chocolate. So I finally get the chance to pass by with a friend and for what NOTHING! This place was such a disappointment that I'm still in disbelief while I'm writing this. I thought it would have many chocolate options but it was just one simple condensed menu with not much to pick from so I get the chocoholics platter (which is nothing to brag about) and I ordered a white wine from then menu (2005) so I get my bottle of wine and I realize that they served me a 2007 bottle of wine. I'm no expert but a 2 year difference makes a difference especially in pricing, but I'm not really one to make a scene so I didn't say anything however unfortuately I will not be returning to this place. Oh and while I was looking up there info on this site I realized that they had an addtional chocolate menu that I didn't get to look at while I was there because they never gave it to me.

looks like it should be in a fancy strip mall

Everytime I pass this place and the few times I have actually walked in I feel that I'm being transferred to some quaint little mall in middle america. From the sterilization of the sidewalk with their bright lights to the stabucks style branding. 99..9% product launching, 0.1% bringing something to the community for the lower east side.
