I noticed we haven't talked about food in a while, so I would like to know your favourite chocolateries/chocolate brands.
Mine are all European (but not Belgian), namely
Zotter (they have lots of flavours that sound icky but work really well) from Austria, and
Michel Cluizel (warning, link is noisy!) (I love their "plain" chocolates, especially the Maralumi and the Noir Infini kinds) from France.
Blatant advertising go! They don't pay me, at least.
I like testing new chocolates, and I do have a few Belgian names on my to try list, but I don't have the money for that sort of thing most of the time and unfortunately, stuff like Lindt falls into the "cheap fix" category for me.
For the cheap fix, I actually prefer Galaxy or Cadbury Flake or Fudge bars.
Also, Darqflame sent me a box of 'Merican ones last year, they were very very nice, considering what I had when I lived on the other side of the pond.
