A creation of local confectioner Ethel M that is part cafe, part lounge. "You love chocolate. We are here to help." is their motto. This location isn't as large or as immediately fun as others around the country, but it's still a fun blood-sugar pick-me-up. Choose fancy chocolates from the carefully designed ones on display, such as pomegranate, champagne cocktail, and even margarita flavor, or savor a fondue or other appropriate nosh. Because they keep mall hours -- Monday through Saturday from 10am to 9pm, Sunday from 11am to 7pm -- they are more of a mid-afternoon snack spot than a post-dinner wind-down option.
