But, hot chocolate of any variety is absolutely vile. Yeah I don't like it, despite liking chocolate a lot. I just don't really like hot drinks that are sweet. Hot chocolate smells amazing though!

GarethRDR Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 (edited) Powdered hot chocolate is gubbins, for sure, but you get that nice Charbonnel brand (essentially dark chocolate flecks that can double as a dessert topping) then that's the real good shizzle. I make an amazing alcoholic hot chocolate that I co-opted from a line in Archer that's got a shot of Crème de Cacao, a shot of Crème de Menthe and half-a-shot of Peppermint schnapps in it and it's absolutely delicious, great for the winter months. Also there's this tiny café in Bruges called Bittersweet that does these terrific chocolate drinks that are a glass of hot milk that you drop a chocolate, I want to say tulip-shaped thing into them which slowly sinks, melts and blends in with the milk. They're bang on. Edited October 29, 2020 by GarethRDR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted October 29, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted October 29, 2020 I do like the really chocolatey hot chocolate. The kind of stuff you get when you order Churros in Spain. I wouldn't drink it straight though. More for dipping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Seat68 Posted October 29, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 29, 2020 My wife has been disappointing me a lot recently. Anti mask, mentioning some conspiracy theories, occasionally repeating Daily Mail type stories regarding immigrants. Wednesday we had chippy tea and she only went and bought gravy to go on her fish. Calling the solicitor later. 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t mind a little bit of it but I’m not a huge fan. After Christmas all we have is dozens of orange fondant chocolates left in the bottom of every tin.

blandy Posted October 31, 2020 Author Moderator Share Posted October 31, 2020 I had some fish and chips earlier. Had mushy peas with it. Felt sad. Mind you it was cheaper. Why do they do that? Large Haddock, chips and peas £7.45, but Large Haddock, chips and Gravy £8.35. Next time I'll make sure I've got the funds for a proper feed.
