The next morning we headed to Brussels for the day. Our flight to Rome left that night out of Brussels, so we figured we would do some chocolate shopping before. When I went to church in Brussels back in October with my sister and friend, the Bishop of the ward gave us the best advice ever- to visit the Neuhaus Chocolate Outlet, where you can sample as much free chocolate as you want! He said if you leave without feeling sick, you haven't done your job. I must admit, I was a bit skeptical. How could there really be a chocolate outlet that gives unlimited free samples? Sadly it was closed that day because it was Sunday, but I now knew where I would go next time I was in Brussels.
Well the Bishop wasn't kidding! We arrived to the Neuhaus Outlet not sure what to expect. I was hoping it wouldn't be a disappointment since I had told everyone we needed to go. We walked in and it looked like any other chocolate shop, except in front of almost every display, was a tray of samples. A row of about 30 open chocolate boxes lined one of the walls. It was a dream come true. I went around quickly trying everything to find my favorite, Big Russ was so excited he couldn't stop giggling, Susie was trying to find gifts to take home, and Rusty was just doin his thing, sticking by his favorites.
If you are ever in Brussels, and like chocolate, this place is a must! It is about 30 minutes outside the city, but depending on how much you can eat, it'll save you at least 20 euro :)
