      If you trek out to Burnaby Heights, that’s where you’ll find Chez Christophe Chocolaterie Patisserie—a chocolate shop that specializes in fine handmade chocolates, truffles, signature chocolate bars, artistic chocolate sculptures, cakes, and more.

      The decadent storefront recently relocated across the street, allowing for more space to expand its menu that now includes sandwiches and a larger coffee selection.

      The Straight was invited to a media celebration earlier this week to toast Chez Christophe’s grand opening of its new location, and got to take a an inside look at the 2,100-square-foot space.

      Scroll through our photos below for an exclusive tour of the chocolate shop.
