There are quite a few good chocolatiers in New York, offshoots of shops in Paris and elsewhere in Europe. Richart is just one. (My bro lives there, and gets them for me for XMas). I think Fuchon or something is another good one but I don't recall the spelling. Godiva is great, way better than Hershey's, but it's not at the level of real gourmet chocolates. I'm not sure it's worth the price diff, but I'd try some high-end ones just to see what it's like.
