Merkel and Myrtle visited Sydney for the national
Scrabble championships recently. Their
Scrabble performance was unremarkable but another South Australian, Daniel
Piechnick, became the national champion.
While in Sydney, Merkel took the opportunity to try some new
hot chocolates.
Il Buco
This is an Italian restaurant in Burwood with great food and
great service. The hot chocolate was not
particularly special. It came in a glass
and saucer and cost $4.00. This was
adequate for a café.
Lindt Hot Chocolate Café
This café on Darling Harbour is a haven for chocolate lovers. The hot chocolate came as an empty cup, a jug of frothed
milk and a jug of wonderful liquid chocolate.
Merkel was free to mix his chocolate and milk to his desire, and the
result was a great chocolate experience.
The cost was $7.00.
Chocolate del Mondo
Chocolate del Mondo has three stores in New South
Wales. Merkel attended the one on Burwood
Road, Burwood. This is a chocolate café which
provides chocolate from all over the world.
It features a map or the world and the chocolate varieties that come
from different countries. It also
creates the impression of chocolate dripping of the ceiling and walls.
Chocolate del Mondo is the sort of place Merkel would
revisit many times if he lived in Sydney.
He ordered the Italian hot chocolate, which came in a tall glass topped
with whipped cream and chocolate powder.
It was thick and delicious and cost $5.95.
