More than once, I’ve had friends and colleagues tell me this is the best chocolate they’ve ever had. Mischer creates incredible-tasting and gorgeously-shaped chocolates with creative flavors like champagne, pistachio, and tequila. Stop by the store on Grand Ave., pick up a box of assorted flavors or grab a scoop of gelato, and sit at one of the outdoor tables.
