You can tell I’m sleep-deprived.
Not because of the overnight baggage waiting to be checked in under my eyes, but because somehow I almost missed telling you about the Chocolate Festival that’s already underway at Southbank Centre.
This three-day fest overlooking the Thames is a chocolush’s dream.
There are tastings and demonstrations by master chocolatiers and chefs including a session on the ‘humble Brownie’ and an Easter egg-making class.
Find out about how chocolate’s used in savoury dishes (duck salad with dark chocolate vinaigrette anybody?) or feast on truffles, shakes and pancakes.
If that’s not enough choc overload, there are edible sculptures on display around the Royal Festival Hall.
Chocolate Festival is free and runs until Sun Mar 28 in the main Marquee at Southbank Centre Square.
OMG there’s a choc festival?? And I can’t be there :( I’d love to try that dark chocolate vinaigrette btw, but with some chili too ;)
Enjoy that festival for us :)
Thanks for stopping by my blog btw and happy SITS sharefest!
Oh sorry, I confused you with someone else, hence the “thanks for stopping by”, just a short explanation ;) Enjoy your weekend nevertheless :)
Hi V, and yeah I had chocolate and chilli at another choc festival I went to (sensing a theme here?), was yummy!
Tut tut tut Uju! And here I was sitting wondering what we should do with ourselves tomorrow! This is great! Thanks
LMAO @ baggage under your eyes that needs to be checked! LMAO!
LOL I’m guessing you can relate to that feeling, Afrikabelle :-)
