Moms Bday-- its all about the chocolate

For Mom's Birthday we made reservations at a chocolate cafe. There was an advertisment in the paper for a "chocolate tasting" and I thought what better way to celebrate. We had never been to this place so thought we would give it a try. We decided to have a light dinner of salad and make the chocolate tasting the main meal! We should NOT have eaten dinner! I figured at $15/person for the tasting we would get small slivers of things to try. I was wrong. we each had a choice of: flavored hot chocolate, piece of candy, piece of cake and fondue. However since there were 5 of us the owner brought out Fondue for 2 and 4 other deserts! So we had: 5 hot chocolates, 5 pieces of candy, 5 pieces of cake, chocolate fondue with fruit, banana split, an avalanche (icecream with brownie), waffle delight (2 belgian waffles with ice cream, bananas and stawberries with chocolate sauce and whip cream. We were is chocolate heaven! And I am proud to say we DEVOURED it! the hot chocolate decision:
the piece of candy and hot chocolate (1st course)
The cake:
Chocolate Avalanche
Wafflw Delight
Fondue and Banana Split
the Chocolate kiss
The Chocolate Overload!
