Koko Black - Royal Archade
As some of you are aware, I occasionally do a chocolate review,… I can’t help myself, I like chocolate almost as much as I like coffee. Chocolate drinking houses aren’t as prevalent as coffee houses in Melbourne, so on the occasion I find something different I have to yell out about it.
Koko Black is in the Royal Archade off Bourke Street. It’s an unassuming little shop with an array of devilish chocolate delights on offer. It you venture upstairs you’ll be greeted with what could be a lounge from yesteryear, and a limited but delectable array of hot chocolate offerings. I went the standard Koko Black hot chocolate, and took a pun on the truffle as well.
I’m still staggering around in ecstasy. Damn that’s good! I feel kinda silly for having raved about Max Bremer’s now… no disrespect to MB’s… different league I suggest.
By the way,.. I also bumped into this for chocoholics online.. any feedback? Anyone tried it?

Hi Peter,
Just read this post after doing some Googling. To answer your question, yes I've visited DefinatelyChocolate's website before. Never ordered anything though. They source quite a number of their chocolates from Cacao in St Kilda (French cafe, patterserie and chocolatier). My coffee drinking friends who have sampled Max Brenner, Koko Black and Cacao coffees (just coffee, not mochas) say Cacao is definately the best.
Btw, arcade is spelt "archade" in the post heading ...
Plenty of chocolate cafes these days in Melb: Max Brenners all over the place, Koko Black now in 3 places, Xocolatl, Sokolata, Cacao, ChocolateFire and countless places that make a mean hot choc.
Cheers
