As someone who thinks the only thing better than chocolate is more chocolate, this tour was the perfect birthday present for me!
Starting with truly yummy Nutella-covered chocolate doughnuts from an artisan baker we went on to visit two wonderful chocolatiers - one Greek and one Belgian - a fudge shop, and the Bird & Blend Tea Co for the unusual but delicious chocolate digestive tea. The highlight for me was the Knoops cafe where we had the most amazing milkshake, made with our own choice of 80% cocoa, and a contrasting hot chocolate with a spicy twist. Our guide Sophie was excellent, telling us a lot about the history of the area and introducing us to some fabulous street art. We were the only guests and really enjoyed her company and the wide-rangng conversation.
