Adrian P.Adrian Phillips: I had the double chocolate peanut butter cookie and the chocolate brioche. The cookies are thick and gooey and the brioche is filled with so much tasty chocolate.

Mike C.Mike Chau: Try the Chocolate Chip Brioche - Massive, just like their cookies

L. T.L. T.: Go away and leave my chocolate brioches alone. They're always sold out when I get there! Fortunately cookies are baked all day long.
