As a Chocolate Lover I’ve traveled the world to find the secrets of this wonderful bean and just discovered a new nib right here in NYC. My latest trip was to the Chocolate Museum in lower Manhattan which was light on the actual artifacts but high on the chocolate. There was tidbits of the history and foundation of the beans with the hi lights coming with the tasting (it is Chocolate you know). You will taste the original Chocolate that was only reserved for the aristocrats of their time, the Mayan’s who invented the formula they know best. WARNING if you’re a milk chocolate fan stay away from this bold authentic flavor. For those who want to live a bit more in our times there is also a truffle creating and tasting. The most important lesson you will gain from this tour is that Chocolate is delicious for your health as new discoveries of it’s benefit continue to sip or suck (don’t bite good chocolate) into the news feed everyday. If you’re into Chocolate 1/2 as much as I am then this is Museum must come 1st.
** 1/2 = Add a 1/2 star more if you are Chocolate fanatic like me. The price is a bit steep for what you are shown but the taste is well worth it for it is Chocolate!
