Cambridge is the Real Chocolate City

It’s been over a couple weeks or more since my wife (Sarah), son (Saud) and I have come back from England. It was a wonderful trip. Got to catch up with family and take a break from the work grind. Not that I got anything against Washington D.C. for being the original “Chocolate City” but Cambridge in England is the REALChocolate City. New Orleans, Chicago, Detroit, and Atlanta got nothing on Cambridge. Okay folks, I’m not talking about people, but chocolate. Although Cambridge has become a bit more “beige” over the years due to more diverse cultures moving into the neighborhood, chocolate is still king.

Let me put it plainly, Sarah and I are chocolate fanatics. I probably wouldn’t pause for a second if someone offered me an intravenous drip of chocolate into my veins. England, not to mention Europe in general, is somewhat of a “chocolate paradise”. It’s Willie Wonka’s for adults. Every type of chocolate exists. Go into the average corner store and their chocolate selection looks like the cereal aisles in the U.S. supermarkets. It’s not only their chocolate, but all the other cakes, ice-cream, candy, cookies, croissants, etc that utilize this wonderful chocolate in the most ingenious ways. Even their KitKats taste better than ours. I wish I took more pictures of all of our chocolate adventures but below is a slideshow of some of our favorites.
