| - Suite 88 has always had a special place in my heart. You see, before I moved to Montreal over ten years ago, my boyfriend at the time brought me to that place and I left with a little bag filled with their delicious chocolate. I still carry the memory with me and each time I come back, I find myself delighted in their chocolates and drinks, as it it was the first time all over again! *cue Madonna's Like a Virgin song*
I adore chocolate. If I could have a three-way marriage, it would be my husband, me, and chocolate. It would be messy but fulfilling.
Suite 88 never fails to deliver excellent, rich and tasty chocolate, as well as an exceptionally good service. Once, a few minutes before their closing time, my husband and I were looking for a coffee shop downtown. Whereas most other places would either have turned us down or considered us annoying, the barrista was extremely polite and kind, treating us with respect and care. Even if I apologized and assured him we would be gone as soon as we had our mochaccino to-go, he told us it was no problem at all and that he was happy to help us. Now THAT is golden customer service!
I highly recommend their chocolate coffee, espresso, hot chocolate and chocolate products. Actually, I recommend everything. I'm serious; I've never been disappointed by their products, except that one time when I couldn't finish their cold chocolate drink because it was too rich and sweet. In any case, I consider this to be my fault, as it as delicious. I just wasn't strong enough to handle it! Perhaps I should return more often and train my choco-muscle!
Finally, their prices are a bit on the expensive side, so prepare your wallets. It's the main reason I don't go too often. That and the fact I don't want to inflate like a balloon and die of diabetes by age 40. I'd die happy though, no doubt!
