Issue 43: A Chocolate Themed Trip to Melbourne, Australia
Ten chocolate pairings to try today.
Melbourne is one of the big chocolate cities of the world. Here are ten more reasons why from my latest trip there.
The chocolate dessert at Nordic inspired restaurant Freyja on Collins Street in Melbourne CBD. Chocolate mousse with rhubarb, Campari, Sichuan pepper and sour cream.
Mörk Chocolate’s new store at 13 Centre place in Melbourne CBD! Watch out for events they sometimes hold on the second floor (think cheese and chocolate pairings).
S’mores made with crackers, chocolate and caramelised burrata cheese at Ugo Burrata Bar in South Melbourne Market.
4. Hojicha chocolate ice cream wrapped in mochi at Hareruya Pantry in Melbourne CBD.
A French style hot chocolate from JC Patisserie in Melbourne (Abbotsford).
The Mexican hot chocolate with chilli, Himalayan salt and orange bark from Güras Cacao in Prahran Market in Melbourne.
The 72% dark chocolate hot chocolate with fior di latte and marshmallow gelato and hazelnut croccante from Pidapipo in Fitzroy.
The Nama Chocolates from Hareruya Pantry in Melbourne CBD, available in several flavours, all good.
The pain au chocolate at Publique in Melbourne CBD. Everything a pain au chocolate should be!
Sake and chocolate pairings at Sakedokoro Namara in Melbourne CBD. They sold the sake, we snuck in the chocolate.
Have a great week!
