The recipient of this title is THE LINDT CAFE!!
*Thunderous applause as the audience exchange 'I told you so' looks*
Yes, yes, this one might be a teensy bit Cliche, but who doesn't love the smell of molten chocolate? Rich and velvety, it surrounds you like a warm embrace, tantalising, decadent, intoxicating.
I have had the immense privilege of visiting the larger of the 3 Lindt Cafes in Sydney. The sensation of hurrying in, from a grey and bustling Martin Place, to the golden chocolate scented haven that is The Lindt Cafe is not to be missed.
(www.yourrestaurants.com.au ) (sorry that I didn't take a picture myself, I was too busy enjoying the scent!)
Whether you fancy a Macaroon, a gateau, a sample of delicious Lindt ice cream or their famous Hot or Ice Chocolates, the Lindt Cafe is sure to rise to the challenge! Also, reading the menu is an experience in itself. Such descriptive language is rarely come across in a creative writing piece in my extension English class! I challenge you to find another menu which describes their dishes as 'Splendid', 'Iconic' or 'Illuminating'.
The wonderful experience however, was slightly marred by the disturbing (though not wholly unexpected) propensity of my family to cause a ruckus. After marching past the 'Please wait to be seated' sign, my sister pounced with glee upon the cushioned booth-seats, almost knocking over the drink of a well-dressed business man. Alas, that was not to be the end of the embarassments! But I shall not divulge any further details here (I don't think my mother would appreciate it if she stumbled on to the 'interwebs' only to find tales of her 'episodes')
On that bombshell, (nice Top Gear reference eh?) Until next we meet!
