CHOCOLAT CREMERIE FULL

Air can get trapped in the auger tube blocking the flow of chocolate : Everything’s going great and after a little while the fountain stops flowing properly.Always preheat the fountain before adding chocolate: f the room is cool, the metal bowl and tiers will also be cool and when the chocolate is poured in, it can harden and not flow properly.A level fountain will allow the chocolate to flow evenly around the entire fountain. The more accurate you are, the better the flow of the chocolate. Repeat with the level at different sides of the bowl. Adjust the feet so the fountain is level. Before chocolate is in the fountain, lay the level across the edge of the fountain’s bowl. Don’t think you can “eye” it, you can’t, use the level provided to you. Always setup your fountain on a sturdy surface and level the machine before operating: Leveling your chocolate fountain is a really simple task that takes a minute or two.Don’t use the fountain outdoors: A gentle breeze will splash the falling chocolate.Being directly under A/C ducts is awful, as the cold air will actually cool the chocolate and it will start to harden and will flow terribly. If you are at a facility that dictates where you need to set up, be assertive if the location is bad. Choose the location where you setup the chocolate fountain carefully: Pick a location away from air conditioning ducts, swinging doors, dance floors, exterior doors, etc.The only way I would return is for the bone marrow.

The girls order crepes for dessert and I had a bite - they were okay - but I was already full and not being a fan of crepes made it hard for me to take an additional mouthful.Ī pleasant meal even though there were a few hiccups but overall a nice brunch place to hang out as a couple, family or with your girlfriends. I hate it when I am disappointed at the simplest of dishes when eating out. In fact, I make a similar dish at home and it is one of the easiest things to do as long as you have good quality ingredients (I get my sausage from Claro’s Market in Tustin) and you don’t overcook the pasta. Penne with roasted peppers and sausage ($10.95) was under-seasoned and very boring. I’m not sure the caramelized onions or candied pecans did much to enhance the flavors, but the gorgonzola and prosciutto definitely added a much needed saltiness to the pizza. When it arrived, they were dried figs rather than fresh and that immediately changed the flavors on this pizza. The pizza with mission bay figs ($13.95) caught my eye and I should’ve inquired carefully before ordering because I asked the server if they had figs - as it wasn’t in season - and she said yes. Oh well, I still wanted some and decided upon the Mozarella Tasting Plate ($11.95) consisting of burrata, buffalo milk mozarella, Fior de Latte cow’s milk mozarella.Ĭarpaccio and arugula ($11.95) had some parmigiano shavings, capers, extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice and only fared average with me. They do not, but is acquired from an authentic little place in Little Italy I’m told. I saw that they had a “mozarella bar pantry” and inquired if they made the cheeses in-house. Even so, there was a lot of marrow for the 5 of us. The marrow hidden within the bone was so gooey and rich and after we lathered it onto the bread with a dollop of the parsley, garlic and caper salsa verde, we bit into it and proclaimed it heavenly! This is a very rich and heavy dish so I highly recommend sharing. Three chunks of bone arrived on a platter with salsa verde, roasted garlic and artisan bread slices. We began with baked Bone Marrow ($12.95). There were 5 of us, and luckily everyone was pretty easy going when it came to menu selection. Cynthia had fond memories of her meal at Chocolat when she visited San Diego on a previous visit and wanted to go back again. When my friend Cynthia visited from Toronto, she managed to gather some of our old school friends together for Sunday brunch. It isn’t always that a bunch of people who haven’t seen each other for about 30 years is able to get together, especially since we all knew one another on another continent.
