You want high-end chocolate as your last minute gift because you forgot to buy something? La Maison…read moredu Chocolat got me out of the doghouse today with a great selection of chocolates. Particularly the dark chocolate dipped orange slices. I'm saved! One box of that for my wife and one box of the chocolate hazelnuts for me. The young man working the counter wrapped them nicely and spoke perfect English. Easy, pleasy! [Review 12205 overall, 1989 of 2019.]

I had tried macaroons in France and in the US, but I had never been impressed. The macaroon from la Maison du Chocolat was so light and just melted in my mouth, "lighter than the air" as they say. I'm going back to get more! Highly recommended! ***************************** If you found something useful in my review, please hit "useful" so that I can improve my future reviews.

I came across Chocolat Ilene boutique on a Montmartre Walking tour. The fact that the walking guide…read more(a longtime French chef) recommended her shop speaks highly of the chocolates. A Korean woman is the chocolatier and she is obviously skilled at chocolate artistic sculpture for festive events. But it is her fine chocolates that dominate the candy case - which catch my eyes. I find an Asian sensibility pleasing in the variety of filling/flavor choices. After having several samples of chocolates and a house made macaron, I bought an assorted chocolate box. Yum! The boutique itself is like a small candy box filled with treats - nice ambiance. With the lab in the back, the chocolates are as fresh as can be. Next time I'm in the Montmartre neighborhood, I'll be stopping by again!

I loved getting to support a small local business and hearing the history of the sisters who opened the shop. The macarons that we tried here were hands-down the best that we ate during our trip to Paris and the chocolate was top-notch. I thoroughly enjoyed the unique combination of flavors, especially the black sesame macaron. Skip the larger chain shops and come try Chocolat Illèné.

The oldest chocolate store in Paris does not disappoint. Not only is it undeniably quaint inside,…read morebut the chocolate and sweet selection makes you wish we had anything like this in America. This isn't a gimmick- it's the best chocolate I've ever had. I wish I bought some more and might order more of this online because it's that good. (Also, both staff members were exceptionally helpful especially in guiding my son who was completely overwhelmed by the selection, which is what you would expect of a kid in a candy shop.)

We happened to go on Valentine's Day so, even though it was raining, there was a steady stream of people coming in to pick up last minute gifts. We purchased some dark chocolate bars, marzipan and hazelnut chocolate treats and they were all delicious. The shop itself was so cute and felt like stepping back in time. Really loved the whole vibe and will hopefully be back!

It was a bit pricey for a box but we chipped in and picked a few flavors we each wanted to try. The store was super clean and staff were fast getting through customers in line and were friendly.

I am not going to say that it is the best chocolate I have ever had, but it is damned close. Absolutely exquisite. The perfect souvenir to bring home for yourself, family and friends.
