Once a tiny chocolaterie, The Chocolate Shop on Street 240 recently underwent some substantial remodelling and it now does more than just to-die-for chocolates. It’s the de facto air-conditioned dining room of its sister property The Shop, which serves a short but focused list of positively healthy (and fabulously inexpensive) salads and midday plates. Which makes it criminal to skip the good stuff. Chocolate is sold by the gram and comes in a dozen varieties: in truffles, brownies, coffee and ice cream; with almonds, mixed nuts, dried fruits or Kampot pepper; in bite-sized marbles, shareable bars and half-kilo, coma-inducing statuettes. Choose your elixir. The Chocolate Shop, #35 Street 240.
