HOT CHOCOLATE

I'm not very picky, it's just that the things I don't like to eat/drink are very "normal". Tomatoes, cheese, butter, milk, coffee, tea, wine, etc. I'm turning a corner though with hot chocolate.

The first time I had a hot chocolate from this particular cafe (Maiala, Mt Glorious) it was served in a mug by a nervous new kid whose shaky hands made a spilled mess of it over the mug and saucer. I didn't care though. The mess made it humble and homey-looking. A mountain of mini-marshmallows, and the thickest, chocolatey-est, frothiest drink.

I went back today for more. It was presented a little bit better this time (although I would have preferred the messy mug for photos :))

So even though hot chocolate is not the most mature drink, I do feel a little a little more grown-up now that when people ask me to go out for coffee, I don't have to order water or juice ;) Next step... coffee! (Yuck!)
