Watched it for the umpteenth time this morning... I dun noe why i'm such a sucker for this movie... Is it Meg Ryan's perky nose?? Or the beautiful New York scenery?? Or the romantic notion of the old-style bookshop?? After all, I was inspired by Chocolat to open my own confectionery shop and I wanted a shopfront just like Meg's bookstore... Sighz....
I was really into the confectionery shop... Talked to my sisters about it and all... It'll be a little like Essential Brew at Holland V (the shop layout) but much more cozy...
Lots of red and yellows and white... Big windows to bring in the natural light... Warm, orange lighting for tt dreamy feel... Small pots of greenery on the window sill and tt little bell at the door to welcome each guest tt walks in... A big glass showcase of the little desserts and sweets we have... Cushions, magazines and coffee-table books... Abstract paintings tt make their presence felt on the walls, mostly framed in dark wood...
Imagine walking in to be enveloped by the rich smell of coffee and chocolates (not the stinky type tt u can smell in Boon Lay), sitting down to a cup of hot English Breakfast while u daintily taste the souffle or cake... Or just curling up with ur loved one and feeding each other chocolate covered strawberries, courtesy of the fondue pot...
Sweet... Real sweet.... =)
