This is what heaven looks like

I love everything about this shop: the mosaic tile floor, the curved glass cases, the pressed tin ceiling and, hmmm, what else -- oh yeah, the CHOCOLATE!

Melts in your mouth, not in --

Imagine the delicious aromas that would be in this shop. I wish this website offered "Smell-O-Vision." How did they keep the chocolates from melting during the summer months?

The screen doors don't look like they could keep out a determined fly. And is that a bird cage in the upper left corner - with a canary inside? A bit unsanitary for an upscale food vendor.

That's an interesting pattern. A bit time consuming, but very nice.
