I know Zabar's, but where's Jacques Torres' chocolate shop, please?

It's in Brooklyn near some bridge (not necessarily the Brooklyn Bridge,
though, I'm not sure which one it's near). See he

http://www.jacquestorres.com/ourshoppe.html

I have not been there but people on rfc (rec.food.cooking) who have been
have raved about it. They especially raved about his pithiviers (I know I
spelled that incorrectly. It's some kind of almond pastry.).

Just to stay on topic for the group, my cat recently decided that I make an
excellent springboard when jumping to reach the windowsill above my bed.
First she jumps on my face because it's "in her way," then she jumps on my
back (or chest, depending on the situation) to help her gain height. Is
there no respect between cats and their owners? (tongue firmly planted in
cheek).

Thank you! (It's near the Manhattan Bridge - one bridge up from the
Brooklyn Br.) I keep expecting to get over to the Brooklyn Heights
Esplanade one of these times when down in NYC, but haven't yet - this shop
is near there. And if not, I bookmarked the website.

In New York, but the lease says it has to be just me and my beasties.

Darn! New York is a bit far for me, but if you ever feel like adopting a
new beastie, I'm free and I can cook!

rona (dreaming of that perfect apartment...I wonder if it's near Zabar's


or

Jacques Torres' chocolate shop...)

Zabar's is not nearby (if she moved where I think she did).

I don't know about Jaques Torres, but there *is* supposed to be an
insanely good chocolate nook on the Upper East Side. I try to stay
ignorant of the details as a survival mechanism. Its supposed to be amazing.

Ah, in that case, I'm guessing that 3 miles is "near". :-)

Laura


Near?!??!?!?! That's practically next door! You're in a dangerous position
out there! You'd better sublet to me, in order to prevent the gain of too
many pounds from overeating Jacques Torres chocolate. I am willing to
sacrifice myself to save you :-)! Plus chocolate is not good for cats, and
they may suffer from inhaling chocolate fumes. Have wind, will travel after
all!
