The seasonal spicy hot chocolate is a standout in my memory. I enjoyed how my taste buds vacillated between sweet and spicy with each sip. I still haven't tried their savory bites, but they look good. My only gripe is the prices are a bit expensive, especially just for a drink and dessert. But if you feel like splurging, it's totally worth it.\n\nIt's the nuances that elevate this place to five stars: the interior decor, congenial staff, and presentation of food and beverage. So come in, bring a friend or two, ensconced yourself into a chair (if there is one available) and follow the three words that most regulars know: sip, savour, and socialize."^^ .
