{London: Rabot Chocolate shop}

If you intend on making a day trip to The Borough Market - (you should) you must definitely have a little stop off at the Rabot Estate Chocolatier. This is chocolate at it's finest. Their speciality are their savoury and sweet pancake wraps using cacao as a main ingredient. Some snippets off their menu:
Neal's yard Perroche Goat's cheese, Rabot Estate dark chocolate walnuts and dried cherries // Stilfield farm cooked ham, Montgomery Chedder, Seasoned Chocolate glaze & Creme Fraiche // Marche de Quartier Duck Confit, Rabot Estate dark chocolate, dried cherries, coriander, cacao nibs & Creme Fraiche

In fact, if you put your nose close to your screen you can basically smell the chocolate-high from this photo. Each cup probably contains about 5000 calories. It's lucky that I could hardly finish mine. 

YUM.
