Experts say chocolate is best enjoyed with a glass of cool, but not cold water. We agree, and would like to add that cool, but not cold water may best be enjoyed with a hand-picked assortment of chocolate ganache truffles from The Chocolate Room. This review is dedicated to the chocolatier, Fritz Knipschildt, and the sensational ganache he infuses with spices, heats, herbs, fruits, and flowers. A quick preview of our favorites, though the list goes on: tangerine & red chili, caramel & sea salt, lavender, violet, currant & peppercorn .. In addition, The Chocolate Room offers a wide variety of chocolate themed desserts, including fresh fruit fondue, pasteries, brownies, mousse, cakes and more .. but we haven't tried any of those just yet. We can't help but focus our attention on the flavors of the Ganache. The prices are a little indulgent, but we've found the unconventional and dreamy flavors of the truffles more than make up for it. Besides, it's cozy and smells like fresh baked brownies all the time.
