Neuhaus Chocolate Shop Opens at Boston's Faneuil Hall Marketplace

A Belgian chocolatier that first started out more than 150 years ago has opened a shop in the heart of downtown Boston.

Eater Boston is reporting that Neuhaus now has a chocolate shop at 1 South Market Street in the Faneuil Hall Marketplace, joining three others in New York City, one in Paramus, NJ, and another in Washington, DC. The article mentions that the company first started out in Brussels in 1857 as an apothecary and is considered the inventor of the praline along with the ballotin (a decorative cardboard box used to package chocolates).

Hours for Neuhaus in Faneuil Hall are 10:00 AM to 9:00 PM Monday through Saturday and 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM on Sundays, according to EB.
