A couple of times when I've scanned my players card at a kiosk at the Palms, out came a coupon for some offer at Chocolat. One time I looked in the food court and it wasn't there so I had no idea where in the Palms this place might be.
Yesterday I parked in the east garage and as I was walking in the casino, I happened to glance to the hotel registration area and just to the right was Chocolat! Mystery solved. It does exist.
After playing for awhile, I decided to walk over and check it out. I'm glad I did. I wasn't in the mood for flatbread or a crèpe but the thought of gelato on an upper 90 degree day was enticing. I saw on their board that they had Nutella gelato. Well, they do and they don't. It's one of their flavors but only in a rotating fashion and it wasn't one of the flavors yesterday. A medium cup allows two scoops so I got one scoop of Oreo cookie and one scoop of macadamia nut. Both were good but the macadamia nut was better.
The woman at the counter was very pleasant. I took the gelato and sat at one of their small tables just outside the entrance. Now that I know where Chocolat is, I'll check my offers at the kiosk and probably I'll be back for more. The flat bread looked very interesting.
The only complaint I have is those damn little spoons they give you with gelato. Give me a man sized spoon. next time I go, I'll slip a plastic spoon from one of the yogurt places in my pocket and I'll be able to eat the gelato in a less genteel but more satisfying way!
