Title: Hot Choc At Hotel Chocolat
Post by: drterror666 on October 17, 2009, 02:21:18 pm: This morning my wife and I decided to camp down in Hotel Chocolat in Bristol to see what their hot chocolate was like. All I can say is WOW! She had a Classic and I had an Aztec Chilli. Definitely the best hot choc I've ever had, and a bargain at £3 a pop. They give you a small soup bowl full plus a house chocolate, which beats anything I've ever had at Debenhams or M&S. If you need to get over a sore throat, I definitely recommend the Aztec Chilli!

Check 'em out!

Wow you have a motorway? No such thing in Cornwall!

Is this hot choc bitter like their chocolate is? Their chocolate gives me a headache!

I would say it's sweeter, but with a dark edge. In the case of the Aztec Chilli, it'll melt your throat!

a better question is why would you want a motorway spoiling it! ( not you oldspice )

Title: Re: Hot Choc At Hotel Chocolat
Post by: drterror666 on October 22, 2009, 07:05:39 pm: Divine! I applaud them being fair trade, but I'm definitely not keen. I feel the same about the Dubble bar as well.
Title: Re: Hot Choc At Hotel Chocolat
Post by: ChocolateReviews_Co_Uk on October 22, 2009, 08:06:53 pm: Yeh, I'd call Divine "no think" chocolate as you don't think about it as you eat it. They're a bit like Montezumas if you ask me (going to start an argument I think).
Title: Re: Hot Choc At Hotel Chocolat
Post by: drterror666 on October 23, 2009, 11:18:07 am: No, I'd agree with you actually. I don't think many people understand where their chocolate comes from or that there are many types of cocoa bean. They buy it in the shop and forget it. Saying that, at least Cadbury have gone fair trade now. I tend to buy Hotel Chocolat stuff, especially Rabot Estate bars.
