Our favorite artisan chocolate shop was closed today due to the rainstorm, and my husband and I…read morewere craving handmade chocolates. A quick Yelp search led us to Le Rouge... Upon entering the shop, we got a whiff of a putrid smell. To my husband, it smelled like a dirty public toilet. To me, it smelled like rotten leftovers. We also noticed the shop was not very clean. The floor looked dirty, and the place just looked disorganized. Like as if they were in the midst of a move. Next, onto the service. We each picked four different flavors. The sales associate used his BARE hands to retrieve each one. This is UNACCEPTABLE. Even if he is using sanitizer prior to retrieving the chocolates, this is an unsanitary practice. Sure, the chocolates have paper cups, however my husband did order one orange almond cluster which does not have any covering or paper cup. The sales associate handed the cluster with his BARE HANDS. Gross! I don't believe I've ever been served chocolate without someone wearing gloves... even in a third world country. The chocolates unfortunately were STALE! They all tasted like they had been sitting out for several days. They did not taste high quality - I'm sorry to say that they were barely a step above Russel Stover chocolates. The packaging is nice, though. We love supporting small businesses and especially women of color owned businesses, but unfortunately this place did not meet our expectations. Would not return nor recommend to anyone.

I'm a chocolate snob and make it a point to design walking tours of cities around chocolate…read moreboutique locations (hey - it's a great way to see a city!). My point: I've had A LOT of chocolate in the States and around the world. I've lived in Southern CT for two years. Le Rouge is probably the best in Fairfield County. I have good news and, well, two suggestions: -The chocolates are rich and well made. The flavor profiles are excellent. Really, this place does an excellent job with flavors. I do recommend it! -Suggestion #1: offer options with cheaper packaging. Yes, I know chocolate boutiques have a lot of overhead. And I'm a person who readily forks out $100+ for chocolate samples when traveling. Le Rouge is just too expensive, and I'm not sure the expense matches the product. Again, the chocolate is really, really good BUT.... My current favorite chocolate shop is in NYC and is very pricey, but the truffles are exceptional and the boutique is paying NYC rent. I wonder if Le Rouge can offer a packaging option that doesn't use its high quality boxes for locals just looking to bring 6 truffles home. I suspect that part of the reason that the prices are so high is because the packaging is expensive. In addition to a nice gift box for a friend, I asked for two truffles in a small bag. The clerk told me they couldn't do this. So... La Rouge lost out on the money I would have spent on two additional truffles. I wonder how often this happens and what money is potentially lost? -Suggestion #2: In all the many, many, many boutiques I've been to in the US, Canada, and Europe, every one of them has provided a "chocolate key." This key is sometimes glossy and gorgeous. It sometimes low-key and practical. The point: it's always there! The "keys" are consistent and help the customer identify what they're about to eat. The clerk at Le Rouge told me that the boutique does not hand out a chocolate key/guide/pamphlet because the flavors are often changed. Huh? What? I suggest being consistent. One shape should always be the _____ flavor. The next should be the _____ flavor. If the shop needs to buy more molds to accommodate different flavor profiles, it's worth the investment. OR...if a particular mold is used as a daily/weekly "wild card", I suggest using a color or other indication that it's a particular flavor. One boutique that I frequent uses the same mold for every truffle it makes. However, the truffles are all adorned with a different color to identify the flavor within. Even 10 years later, I know exactly what I'm getting per the color of the truffle top. Again, this is a great place. I would purchase chocolate here more frequently if the price made it a little more accessible to non-wealthy locals. (And, yes, I have no problem paying current prices if I need a fancy box for gift-giving. Sometimes, I just want some nice truffles at home sans fancy packaging.)

A little pricey, sure, but definitely worth the money!

The only Belgium chocolatier in CT!…read more I have been seeing this place all of my Instagram and finally made my way down to Fairfield to try it. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! First off, one of the owners Sylvie, is such a gem! She was the most kind person and shared so much about the business. You can tell she loves what she does. All of the other workers were just as lovely and helpful. There are so many chocolate items to choose from such as chocolate bars, ice cream, Belgium coffee/hot chocolate, and individual chocolate pieces. They have some samples for folks to try in case you don't know which one to get. My personal favorite was the Belgium flag chocolate as well as the cookie butter chocolate bar. Everything here tastes super gourmet. The space is a little small and only has 2 tables, so it doesn't make for a good place to hang out. But it's a good place to go if you ever want to watch someone make chocolate. You can see all of the stuff they make in house :) I would come back to get more goodies for myself and gifts for others!

Frothy, delicious lattes are served in mugs, if you stay for your meal. They also make really tasty breakfast sandwiches, probably one of the best I've had in the area. And the employees are great too. Always super nice, greeting you with a smile and a brief conversation. I really can't recommend Las Vetas enough. I'm now a regular!
