He searches for moan-inducing chocolate — and scores!

I went in search of chocolate for the Wife Unit’s birthday. Initially I searched “Godiva” (because I remembered she was a naked babe and also a chocolate of some distinction) + “atlanta” because I live here. As you surmise, I’m an internet veteran.

What caught my eye though was some directory link mentioning a hand-made chocolate brand I’d not heard of not too far from. So after I bought the first bday gift, I went to Maison Robert Fine Chocolates, which is located unexpectedly in a moderately industrial/commercial area, though in an actual house.

Long story short, I walked in to find a man and woman busily making chocolate. The smell was quite nice. I asked a few chocolate idiot questions, such as whether truffles actually involve mushrooms, and they were very engaging and informative. Just nice folks. So I bought a box and made the wife open that portion of her birthday haul tonight. She had three chocolates with the kind of moaning that would make a more observant man jealous. I asked if they were better than Godiva. She didn’t hesitate in answering “yes.”

Maison Robert Fine Chocolates: my kind of place. Two Sandwiches up.

That’s a good story. And so rare. Unpaid, unsolicited customer praise of a positive retail experience.

Sadly for the birthday, I have a negative experience with a large home improvement warehouse retail distribution center to balance out the great one at Maison Robert Fine Chocolates. A summary is in the twit at the moment.

I read that one. The line jumper.

And I find myself counting the items in the cart of the person in front of me if they’re using the express lane.

We need to chill.
