Los Angeles Chocolate Salon

I really enjoy the Chocolate Salons that Chocolate Television, TasteTV sponsors. As a judge at the International Chocolate Salon in San Francisco, I encourage you to go. One word to the wise. Go early. It does get crowded, but rest assured, there is no dearth of chocolate. Plenty to go around!
