"The city's own Willie Wonka, Jacques Torres, has opened a cavernous chocolate factory that blurs the lines between retail and manufacturing. Designer Pierre Court indulged every one of Torres's fantastical notions, from the cacao-pod shape of the shop to..."

"In his years at Le Cirque, Jacques Torres earned an international reputation for his over-the-top concoctions: stoves and pianos and ladies' hats. But he left all that behind to convert a brick warehouse on the Brooklyn waterfront into a chocolate factory..."
