Great chocolate, too! 4/17/2006

I confess that when I was in college and living full time in Philadelphia, I had few occasions to go to this admittedly expensive little shop. However, I did have a couple of magnificent visits when I found some wonderful, unusual notecards for people unsuited to Hallmark. There is also a tremendous selection of high quality and unusual teas and coffees, only some of which I sampled. Even the few I sampled were extraordinary and the others also smelled terrific. There was also a great selection of imported chocolate, which is very good and well worth an occasional splurge. more

European items in Philly 8/21/2005

For everything European come to Avril 50 on Samson Street. This little shop carries all European items from cigarettes to the latest euro magazines. The prices for these items are pretty expensive, but it makes sense since these items are being imported. If you’re looking for something European come to this tiny store and see if you can find it. more
