NYC Dining: Max Brenner

Max Brenner: Chocolate By The Bald Man
841 Broadway New York, NY
141 2nd Avenue New York, NY

The new Manhattan Max Brenner cafe/restaurant/chocolate shop, which has only been open for three weeks, already has all the makings of a complete Willy Wonka experience, minus the Oompa Loompas. Willy’s been replaced by a charming fashionable bald Israeli man, but if you’re anything like me, this restaurant is a dangerous place to be, and you’ll have to resist the temptation of going completely Augustus Gloop on the place.

Chocolate Pizza. Oh yes.

Croissants

Waffles with Chocolate Sauce, which was put out for sampling.

Dark Chocolate Granita. I highly reccomend these.

Choices, choices.

Chocolate Waffle Balls. Mmmmm.

The “Bald Man” himself, Oded Brenner, founder of Max Brenner chocolates.
