I've only been to one chocolate shop in the area, Alethea's in Williamsville. It's still though the best chocolate I've eaten in my life. Back in the 90's there's was a motel I stayed at that was next to the candy shop.
A couple years back I saw the motel became a housing complex but Alethea's was still around. It looks just like I remembered it and the chocolate was delicious. Wonderful place.
Being I'm not from WNY, is that place well known in the area, or are shops like that the norm?
