I've been receiving some good news these days, and as such, I decided to bring dear out for a mini celebration. Through some friends recommendation, I thought of giving Laurent Bernard Chocolatier a try because it was near our church (so we could drop by after our church meeting) and more importantly, we've never been to this place before!

I found the place quite interesting when we arrived. Somehow, the decor and interior reminded me of those you'll find in an Ikea Catalogue. Regardless, it exuberated a cosy vibe.
However, there are quite few seats inside where it is air-conditioned. So if you are thinking of coming in a large group, guess you'll have to be seated outside.
The Coupe Chocolate Chocolate ($14.00) that we ordered to share. As you can see, it is filled with Chocolate and Hazel Nut Ice Cream, Chocolate balls, Chocolate Syrup, Caramel coated Chocolate Wafers. Very chocolate-y indeed!
Dear and I thought of ordering another dessert to share, so I ordered the above. Not sure what it is called; I think Pleasure something ($9.00). Any how this dessert is actually made up of thin chocolate strips with what I believe is hazelnut and chocolate cream beneath each strip. Of course, the base is some crusty biscuit.
But honestly after being surfeited with Chocolate from the Coupe Chocolate Chocolate, I had trouble eating the above after one or two bites. In fact, being lactose intolerant, I felt very bloated from all that chocolate cream that I felt like puking!
Nonetheless, I was still able to drink the Banana Smoothie ($9.00)that we ordered earlier on. Interestingly, I thought it tasted like banana (as opposed to some shops which mix the banana with other queer flavors making it taste less of banana).
Hmm, I think I'll probably return to try out other beverages (that are less chocolate-y). But if you'd ask me, I rather return to the regular Starbucks or Coffee Bean for more affordable beverages and pastries.
