Hotel Chocolat ~ Hot Chocolate

 

We have received gifts and even ordered from Hotel Chocolate before so it was an absolute treat to go to the Hotel Chocolat shop, Monmouth Street, Covent Garden in London. We got a very decadent hot chocolate with the most rich and creamy whip topping. Being in London at the end of October and for most of November really gave us a cross section of seasons and seasonal delights. The hot chocolate was exquisite and the ultimate, so much so that we went back on another day to indulge some more, that time savouring a dark chocolate mocha. The CafĂ©, beverage bar has it set so you choose your style of drink, hot, iced or choc shake then you choose your flavour, with approximately 20 flavours for you to choose from. Some of the flavours offered were Salted Caramel & Clementine, Dark Mint, Ginger, and Black Forest Gateau. It may be truly a chocolate lovers dream however they do offer seasonal exclusives, plus cacao ice cream, and coffee and tea amongst their other chocolate products and even have a free members sign up, VIP.ME, for exclusives, which I did, obviously.

Lost Souls Pizza

A pizza parlour that was on our list to try was Lost Souls Pizza in London. The Lost Boys movie, vampire, 80's theme did not go a miss with us and we revelled in the cozy wrap around decor and the homage to a classic cult movie.  


The interior has a spooky bijou bar to create devilishly splendid cocktails to sip with plenty to glance at and look up to the ceiling to. Our host which was our server also was seraphic and absolutely rocked!


Most pizzas are made with a charcoal crust. My husband opted for the Texas BBQ Massacre pizza, whisky shredded pork, pickles, crispy onions, BBQ sauce pentagram. There are vegetarian and vegan options available for pizzas as well.   


I had the Jack Skelly, butternut sauce, Goat's cheese, sun-dried tomato, red onion, Balsamic pentagram. This pizza was scrumptious! For a pizza parlour that's themed this was some of the best pizza we've tried. I highly recommend trying Lost Souls Pizza if you are in the mood and around London and it's definitely a revisit for us.
