High end chocolate (anyone have a good site?)

I love me some chocolate, and I really, really miss the stuff I was able to buy/eat in Europe I've been trying to content myself with 'high end' American stuff.. but it's just crap. Does anyone have some website recommendation, experiences, and knowledge of what brands make good stuff?

I know this is blasphemy, but I prefer milk chocolate.

Look you saw the trouble that Spitzer got into doing this kind of thing. When will people learn that "high-end, or classy" does not mean completely discreet. You will be caught. Besides there's plenty of nice chocolate on the streets, don't see why you have to use teh internet for it.

Look, that street chocolate is fine for most people who just want a quick dip or some brief stress relief, but I've run through that stuff, and I've tasted the good stuff and I can't get enough.

When I'm in Paris, I head straight to Jean - Paul Hevin at rue St. Honore. Amazing place and love their marrons glace.

God! Do you partake of that plentiful nice chocolate on the streets. I've been gone from NYC for many years, but I hear Hunts Point in the South Bronx has some real nice gourmet chocolate! It takes a real adventurous palate though.

Michel Cluizel is expensive but excellent; they sell in the US still. They do a 99% cocoa bar, which is awesome, if you're into that sort of thing, as am I.

I wouldn't bother. Expensive does not equal special/good. It's not bad, but I had it taste tested by quite a few people and nobody was overly impressed in a positive manner.
