"Famously, Katharine Hepburn was a customer, and in her memoir wrote, “Lots of dark chocolate...came from a small shop on Upper Broadway called Mondel’s — turtles, almond bark, and breakup.” Mondel’s was founded in 1943 across the street from Columbia University, and the chocolates have that old-fashioned quality, which means no sea salt on the tops and a choice of light and dark for every sort of filled bonbon." - Robert Sietsema
