schoc-olate

Went to the new-ish shop on Tory St last Friday - Schoc - together with Gina and Kirsten. It was nice! The hot chocolates there are not cheap - well, the gourmet ones anyway at $5 a cup. And there are 4 flavours -dark choc, chilli dark choc, orange and cardamon white choc and lavender and orange dark choc. I reluctantly ordered the chilli dark choc drink. I had a chilli hot choc from another cafe before and didn't particularly like it. But this one was so much better! I think I'm beginning to warm up to it.

Also we tried some (well one diff flavour each) of their chocolates.... ohhhh.... just divine. I had the liquor cherry one which kinda looks like the one in the picture. Such a treat. I would definitely recommend the place if you want to treat yourself. Its not set up like a cafe,
but there is a small bar-like setup with stools if you want to drink in the shop or slightly further in there is a couch. But careful, the chocolates at the counter looks delicious (and actually is!) and is very tempting!
