Chocolate Secret

If you're as obsessed with Mast Brother's chocolate as I am -- especially the dark chocolate with almonds, sea salt and olive oil -- you'll be glad to know that you can get a slab for just $7 direct from the factory. Two blocks away, at the Bedford Cheese Shop on Bedford Avenue, they retail for $8. And at Wholefoods and Dean & Deluca you'll pay a whopping $9.

Chocolate Worth Traveling For...

It may seem unreasonable to suggest going all the way from Manhattan to Westport, Connecticut for a chocolate fix, but Cocoa Michelle is worth the trip. Situated across the street from the train station on Main Street, the tiny store with one or two cafe tables serves up hand made chocolates and delicious hot chocolate topped with milk froth.
