For those who live and breathe chocolate and coffee (much like I do), the world offers a treasure trove of experiences. Whether you’re sipping espresso in Italy, tasting rich hot chocolate in Belgium or indulging in artisanal chocolate in the U.S., here are some recommended destinations across North America and Europe that will awaken your senses.

The Big Apple offers endless delights for chocolate and coffee lovers. Jacques Torres Chocolate (aka Mr. Chocolate) is a great place to visit for any chocolate enthusiast. The chocolate-covered almonds, decadent hot chocolate, and their famous chocolate chip cookies are some of the city’s best. Pair that with a coffee from Stumptown Coffee, located in the trendy West 8th Street area, where you can enjoy expertly brewed espresso in a cozy, laid-back environment.
Indulge in French-inspired chocolate desserts, from molten cakes to rich chocolate fondue.

Montreal is a chocolate lover’s paradise. At Juliette et Chocolat, you indulge in rich, French-inspired hot chocolate and a range of creative chocolate desserts including molten cakes and chocolate fondue. As much as I love visiting Montreal, I especially love that this is a place where you can experience chocolate in every form imaginable.

France – The Ultimate Indulgence
No chocolate and coffee tour is complete without a stop in Paris. Start your mornings at Coutume Café, a specialty coffee shop that has revolutionized Paris’ coffee scene with its expertly roasted beans. For a more traditional Parisian experience, sip an espresso at Café de Flore, a historic spot once frequented by famous writers and artists - and it happens to be one of my favorites when visiting in the City of Lights.
The coffee culture in Italy is rich in tradition.
Florence – La Via del Tè & Caffè Gilli
Italy is globally known for its coffee - and Florence is no exception. The city’s coffee culture is steeped in tradition, making it an excellent place to experience a very “Italian” coffee ritual. La Via del Tè is a beautiful tea and chocolate shop where you can indulge in Italian hot chocolate—rich and thick, and you should experience it with whipped cream. When it’s time for a pick-me-up, head to Caffè Gilli which is one of the oldest cafés in the city, offering excellent espresso in an opulent, historic setting.
