Chocolate filter: What's the local chocolate specialty of Zurich?
Last year, when I visited friends in Geneva, I was introduced to Pavés de Genève, a deceptively simple but unbelievably delicious chocolate confection. My friends mentioned that not only were these chocolates nearly impossible to find outside of Switzerland, they were extremely difficult to find outside of Geneva even in Switzerland. They were truly a local specialty, emphasis on "local".
Now, this year, my roommate is headed to Zurich and I'd like her to bring back some chocolate for me. So, my question is: what is the Zurich equivalent of Pavés de Genève? I've already seen derMax's comment in another thread (and I'll be instructing my roommate to get some of those too), but I'm wondering if anyone has other suggestions.
