I love chocolate. I like to think I don’t look like I love chocolate, though, eating it in moderation. When I do indulge, I prefer the good stuff, thank you. I gave up Hershey bars when I was in college. These days, I want the best.
So I was more than a little pleased to find that a very special chocolate shop has opened in Fort Lauderdale. Galler is a fine Belgian chocolate sold in only one location in the United States: on chic Las Olas Boulevard. It’s in the 900 block on the south side of the street, beside Tommy Bahama’s, a bit hard to find actually. But if you love chocolate as I do, I recommend persistence. Galler (pronounced “gah-LAIR”) has been open for only 10 months, offering fabulous varieties of chocolate, gelato, even fine teas. Galler chocolates are made from pure cocoa, with no preservatives, no artificial anything. They taste like pure indulgence.
I tried my first Galler chocolate a few days ago and – wow, it really was great. I sampled a solid chocolate egg with hazelnut, small enough to pop the whole thing in my mouth. If you’d been watching me at that moment, you’d have seen my eyes close in that expression of food-delight we all know. If you’d been listening to me, you’d have heard mostly one sound: “Mmmm!”
Galler also has a good website at www.gallerusa.com. There you can find a blog, information about ordering online and a feature called “the truth about chocolate.” I liked that last part especially. These myth-shattering truths include the fact that refrigeration is just fine for chocolate, contrary to what I’d believed. You also can learn the best way to taste chocolates. (Enjoy solid chocolate by popping small whole chunks on your tongue to melt; filled chocolate should be eaten in small bites that mix the filling and chocolate.) So to my fellow chocolate hounds, this blog’s for you, baby! Just remember not to bite into those solid chunks. Why waste something as good as this?

website www.gallerusa.com didn't work, any suggestions?
Please try our website again ( www.gallerusa.com ) if you have not already done so. We were applying an update to the system at that time and apologize for the lack of access.
Sincerely,
