well, the title is sure to create a headache for me, but it sure can't rival the buzz that THAT sinful concoction cafe Angelina on Rue de Rivoli serves. wanted to really call the topic choc-orga..., but well felt that it would cause a serious headache, firstly coz les femmes would agree and then les hommes would disagree.. and the world would of course spin on its routine axis!!
anyhoo, THIS IS SERIOUSLY THE BEST CHOCOLAT!!-now if they only served Johnny Depp with it...it (le chocolat-besides of course cher Johnny)gives you the most divine sugar high followed by a seriously decadent crash that just makes you want to loll around.i can't even post my picture.. coz i really look so blissful that even i feel guilty.
the place should be declared a gastronomique pilgrimage site.. the staff was incredibly pleasant and helpful, the place is within a 10 min walk of the louvre, can u imagine-da vinci, botticelli,carravaggio, rembrandt, .....and angelina's !!!!
hmm, when am i returning to la Paris again???

After reading tons of reviews about the legendary hot chocolate at Angelinas, I knew I had to go there and try it for myself with hubby. The line was pretty short (lucky for us as when we passed by again the next day the line was 5 times as long!!) and we got seated quickly. We debated for ages whether to order 2 hot chocolates or share one. Finally, we ordered 2 hot chocolates and a mont blanc. The hot chocolate was brought in a pitcher type thing with whipped cream. To be honest I've had better hot chocolate elsewhere, like in Spain. Yes it tastes like melted chocolate bars, but not milk chocolate (which is MY favorite) but more like DARK chocolate. The drink was very rich and slightly bitter. The serving for 2 gives you 2 tea cups full per person - way too much. We wished we had only ordered 1 serving - too rich to finish. The Mont Blanc however was to die for! I wish we had ordered just that without the hot chocolate so we could have enjoyed it better. One mont blanc will easily serve two - especially if you're getting the hot chocolate also. we didnt finish it because we had become overwhelmed by the hot chocolate - shame. So go experience it because it is a really nice place, but for heaven's sake, just order 1 serving of hot chocolate and see if you like it first - you can always order more if you love it!

 Angelina, Salon de Thé,
Entrance, Paris, 07/08 by von.otter, 4 more photos
— Marie, Marquise de Sévigné, (1626-1696)
Founded in 1903, Angelina is a grand spot to stop for a hot chocolate on a chilly Paris afternoon. Located on touristy Rue de Ravioli, the main street that travels alongside the Louvre, this majestic salon de thé is worth a visit. There is sometimes a cue, but there is a rich reward for the wait. You can order a hot drink and dessert or a main course, or both.
The food is very good but their specialty is hot chocolate. Thick and luscious, this chocolate drink is unlike anything you have tasted before. Unlike other watered-down hot chocolates, Angelina’s really does tastes like sweet melted chocolate. The chocolate drinks are served with a mountain of whipped cream! Try the Chocolat African, the piece de resistance on the hot chocolate menu.
Angelina is also known for another specialty, the Mont Blanc, a muffin-like concoction made of sugar, milk, butter and chestnut paste. Salads, sandwiches, and quiche are also on the menu.
If you can put off your afternoon meal the service is better around teatime than in the morning, when a rush of tourists descends on the place.
