Stopping over for a nightcap at Godiva was always going to be a bad idea. First of all, everything there was expensive. And secondly, the offerings there were so yummy and rich, I was feeling really sleepy when it was time to head home. The hot chocolate there was so potent.
The boys, as usual had a field day pointing towards the chocolates in the display cabinet. Idlan would always ask if those chocolates contain alcohol. They picked three pieces each before we settled for the drinks. Anita and I ordered a piece of cake each. I chose the Godiva chocolate cheesecake. Yummy!
The eyes certainly lit upThe cake was layered with a chocolate biscuit base at the bottom with a thick layer of chocolate flavoured cheese. On top, there was a layer of pure chocolate, with a piece of the celebrated Godiva chocolate to cap things off. There was also a smear of strawberry and mango purée with some chocolate sauce. Needless to say that the piece was rich and by the time I was halfway done, I just had to slow down. The purée was concentrated and tangy, adding a zing to contrast the bitterness of the dark chocolate.

.... and now for the hot chocolateThe hot chocolate drinks were ace as usual. I was sleepy well before we left the cafe. The effect did not last long though as I was rather hungry during the drive home and had to stop for some KFC to take home.
The Godiva outlet we frequent was the one in Pavilion, located on the second floor.
