What i remember most about Paris is the times where i felt so cold during the winter climate and what kept me going was the wonders of the thick hot chocolate that warms my hands, body and soul. That contrasting feeling of being hot and cold at the same time brought a sense of satisfaction to my stomach as well as my tongue. I wish I can enjoy this along the streets in my country, where and when I can. I think that few minutes of pleasure in a day can be refreshing to anyone. So here it is, the only way for you to have it is by making it yourself. Best for breakfast, exactly how I like it :)
