CHOCOLATE TAKE AWAY

SAN MARTIN IS THE MOST ADORABLE ALPINE TOWN IN PATAGONIA. (THINK ASPEN MEETS ZERMATT BUT WITH MORE LAID BACK LATIN FLAIR). WELL, IN THAT SWISS TRADITION THERE IS ALSO GREAT CHOCOLATE TO BUY AND MAMUSIA IS THE PLACE TO GET IT.

MMMMMM... BACON

THE BACONERY ON MANHATTAN'S UPPER WESTSIDE IS WORTH A VISIT ALONE FOR THEIR SELECTIONS OF BACONS FROM SMALL PURVEYORS AROUND THE COUNTRY. BUT THE REAL TREAT IS THE THICK SLICE OF COOKED BACON THEY THEN DIP IN DELICIOUS DARK CHOCOLATE AND THEN DUST WITH - YES, MORE BACON. IT IS A HIGHLY RECOMMENDED RICH AND DELICIOUS TREAT.

SIR, MAY I HAVE SOME MORE...

DEFINITELY ONE OF THE CULINARY HIGHLIGHTS IN PARIS WAS THIS GIANT BOWL OF CHOCOLATE MOUSSE THAT IS LEFT AT YOUR TABLE FOR DESSERT AT CHEZ JANOU. THEY LEAVE IT TO YOUR DISCRETION TO SERVE YOURSELF, WHICH YOU COULD IMAGINE IS DANGEROUS TERRITORY.
