A 113-year-old Belgian chocolate shop just gave me a new reason to visit. 🍦🍫
Founded in 1913, Leonidas has built its reputation on handcrafted Belgian chocolates. Now, they’re adding fresh, in-house French custard ice cream and sorbet to the menu—and yes, it’s just as indulgent.
Getting a behind-the-scenes look at the craftsmanship made that first scoop even sweeter. From the fresh ingredients to the creamy texture, you can tell every detail matters.
If you’re exploring Chicago this summer (or just searching for your next dessert spot), this is one to add to your list.
