roccoco -- overrated, but okay

edinburgh-- bought chocolate somewhere on the royal mile, delicious so I heard, but I waited too long and mine were the fresh cream ones, euuw. Must be eaten in a week.

seattle --

fran's -- overrated, but great lattes and ice cream sandwiches, they give samples (misdips) with each latte purchase -- 2.19 for a single tall and a truffle, great value
