    Whenever I go to San Sebastián, I can't resist going in. Their chocolate hedgehogs are irresistible. And the chocolate replicas of movie characters are amazing.

    Lovely service and excellent chocolate, one of the staff gave us a taster and was very kind. Gave the kids a free complimentary marshmallow each after we bought what we had tasted.
