Choco-Là!

I was fortunate to take a mid-week break and travel to Pondicherry for 2 days. It was just what my friends and I needed – aimless, relaxed, and uber fun! And while I want to dedicate this post to the time pass we did in Puducherry, I think this one place needs special mention. It was one of those “gotta do it again” places… Choco-Là… a corner chocolate shop on Mission Street.


Where do I start? Miniature mousses that melt in your mouth? Or better still, cake chocolates that are little bites with moist cake as your choice of filling. Rum-&-raisin, dried fruits, marzipan... the options are endless! One of the unique offerings is a chocolate drink (NO, not hot chocolate), a warm rich chocolate concoction that isn’t sweetened by sugar but cocoa drops. Take my word for it, “it is to die for!”


I ate more than is good for me. I tried 4-5 different creations and they were all very satisfying. I give it a 10 on 10. Try it next time your in Puducherry, it’ll be the best money you ever spent on chocolate!


P.S: I may have a little something to do with one of the miniature mousses, its named after me! :D Not really, but let me enjoy my moment of pride!
