| - So I have a lot of 'favorite' places but I can assure you that I am quite discerning in my choices :)
Suite 88 is my go-to for gifts, dessert or when I just want a little something sweet after lunch. First, their brownies are to die for - you can get them as-is or ask the clerk to warm it up for you. Their hot chocolate is rich and smooth, and super chocolatey - a bit rich for my taste, but they make a lovely Mocha. In addition to the above, they have coffee, waffles and gelato (which is quite tasty and refreshing on a hot day).
In terms of chocolate... what can I say? I've never had something I didn't like. My two favorites (for myself or as a gift) are the Mosaics, which offer a lovely variety of flavours, such as Limoncello and Maple, and the Truffles (green tea, Grand Marnier, etc). You can purchase individual pieces if you like, or pick up a box. I usually go for the box of Mosaics because it makes a fabulous gift. Sadly, the truffles cannot be purchased in a box. You can also find chocolate 'shooters' (with flavours like Hypnotic) and domes (with flavors like orange valencia and ginger-litchi). No matter what you buy, you will love it!
Both the de Maisonneuve and St. Denis locations have a small lounge area where you can enjoy coffee and/or dessert, however they close around 11pm on weekends, so you have to get there early!
