Craving: Hot Chocolate
We get so few good hot chocolate days. Not that we're complaining -- we like our winters nice and warm. But it's nice to have an excuse, at least a couple times a year, to indulge in a wonderfully thick hot chocolate. If you're thinking the same thing this morning, here are a few places you might want to try:
• Jimmie's Chocolates and Cafe bills itself as Florida's oldest chocolatier, so we're sure they've learned a thing or two about making hot chocolate in the 60 years they've been open.
• La Palma Restaurant (6091 SW 8th St in West Miami) has some of the best churros around. And as you all know, churros are perfect for dunking in hot chocolate.
• A La Folie Cafe offers a regular hot chocolate plus three other varieties: a 'chocolat parisien' with cream and vanilla, a 'chocolat viennois' with whipped cream, and a 'chocolat fou' with grand marnier. Pair with a croissant for a perfect breakfast.
• Romanico's mostly sells boxed chocolates, but you can go in there and ask for a hot chocolate.
