The best time of year is just around the corner: World Chocolate Day! On 7 July, the world will dedicate 24 hours to celebrating the godsend that is chocolate. What better way to celebrate than by throwing diet plans to the wind and spending the entire day enjoying chocolate in its many shapes and forms?
From pancakes to martinis, here’s how you can have chocolate for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Breakfast/Brunch
Dark Chocolate Souffle at Laurent’s Cafe
Go full-out fancy and have some artisanal chocolates at Laurent’s Cafe. This hidden gem serves authentic French brunch fare, but the star of the show is definitely the sweets. Opened by French chocolatier Laurent Bernard, you know you’ll always get quality chocolate here. A definite must-try is the famous Dark Chocolate Souffle. Fluffy and soft but somehow bursting with decadent chocolate flavour, this is the queen of all souffles. Pour the vanilla sauce into the souffle to make it sweet and fudgy, but still every bit as delicious. Be warned, though: once you have a Laurent’s souffle, no other souffle will ever suffice.
Find it at Robinson The Heeren, 260 Orchard Rd, B1-02C, Singapore 238855.

ChocoCro at St Marc Cafe

Cr: primer.com.ph
Of course, those who’d rather not dive head-first into a sore throat will want something gentler on the stomach. That’s where the ChocoCro comes in! Flaky layers of freshly-baked croissant hug a deliciously molten chocolate core for the perfect balance of rich, light, and buttery. A fan-favourite at St. Marc Cafe that’s been around for 15 years, it’s not hard to see why so many people are enamoured with this delicate pastry.

Lunch
Viennese Hot Chocolate at Antoinette

Cr: nookmag.com
Hot chocolate is just milk, chocolate, and sugar – right? If you think that way, then you clearly haven’t had the Viennese Hot Chocolate at Antoinette. This lavish restaurant has all the makings of an upscale Parisian Patisserie. Head down for a relaxing lunch of perfectly-executed French delights, and make sure you order a Viennese Hot Chocolate as well. Thick, rich, and smooth, drinking the hot chocolate is just like giving your tummy a warm hug. Served in a gorgeous fluted teacup with creme Chantilly on the side, we’re sure even Marie Antoinette herself would approve.

Chocolate Feuilletine Crémeux at Prive

Cr: facebook.com
A cosy family-friendly restaurant with a menu of hearty meals, Prive’s boasts not just delicious mains but also luxurious desserts, and we’ve got our eyes on one in particular: the Chocolate Feuilletine Crémeux. A chocolate-coated dome of passionfruit and banana curd rests on a base of gingerbread. That, in turn, is supported by a soft, moist chocolate sponge. The entire dessert is a mix of sweet, mellow, spicy, soft, and crunchy. In other words, bliss in a bite. It’s only available at Prive Keppel Bay and Prive Asian Civilisations Museum until 8 July, so hurry to get your endorphin rush!
