    Autumn Open House

    Those of you who’ve been with us for a few years know that this is the time of year that we like to mix things up. Chocolatiers, you see, are a fickle breed. We’re ready to make a major change. How major? 11 out of 15 flavors major. We’re keeping a few of our favorites around, but adding a bunch of new and fun flavors to the lineup. Two of our most requested flavors ever will become regulars (sorry trendsetters, still no bacon) but that also means that we’ll have to say goodbye to some of our very popular current flavors.

    If you’ve been playing along at home, you know what that means: sale! So, join us for our Autumn Open House on Saturday, October 23rd from 11 to 3. We’ll be sampling all of our new products, and offering deep discounts on outgoing bonbons. Need more incentive? Check out next week’s reminder email for a sweet coupon good only at our Open House.

    North Side Social Opened Today!

    Northside Social (by the Liberty Tavern people) is a coffeehouse with an upstairs a wine bar  in the old Murky/Common Grounds space in Clarendon.  They also sell fresh bread, and bags of Counter Culture coffee.

    I stopped by and tried a ginger cookie (which was very good).

    They have breakfast until 11am, soups, sandwiches, salads, and an evening menu after 4pm.  The pastries definitely looked good.  They also have Chocolate & port pairings (after 4pm), fondue tasting, and cupcake tasting.

    They are at 3211 Wilson Blvd., and really need to work on their webpage. 🙂
