Swiss Chocolate & Macarons at Chez Christophe

Chez Christophe is what happens when a Cacao Barry ambassador decides the world doesn't need another mediocre patisserie and opens something genuinely, defiantly excellent a block off Johnston Road. Chef Christophe Bonzon hand-makes everything on site: croissants that flake properly, chocolate sculptures that make you feel guilty eating them, and macarons that have sparked a genuine local crisis in pistachio-versus-blueberry loyalty. You'll need to pick a side. This will say something important about your character. The room is tiny, warm and indulgent, the kind of place that requires no reservation and no special occasion, just two people happy to stand at the glass case and point at things they didn't know they needed. White Rock didn't deserve to get this lucky. You do.
