PrintBest Hot Chocolate in your town?
I just had two very different, but equally great hot chocolates from two chocolate houses in San Diego. The first was the Spiced Hot Chocolate from Chi for Chocolate; the second was an Abuela from Chuao. Both were flavorful, and not overly sweet. Who does the best hot chocolate in your town?

I live in NYC, and in my humble opinion, City Bakery and Jacques Torres make the best hot chocolate here. They are pretty straightforward, just a rich, thick,creamy consistency with a deep chocolate taste. At a tasting at William Sonoma I did try their peppermint hot chocolate, and I thought it was quite tasty.

Here in the Midwest, I have not found a great hot chocolate...I am so jealous of NYC & CA options:)

East Bay,CA: Bittersweet Cafe in Rockridge. I think there's a San Francisco location as well.

Apparently a small burrito place in Toronto makes an amazing mexican hot chocolate. I have yet to try it, but it was voted best in the city.

Also in Toronto: Soma in the Distillery District makes shots of drinking chocolate (Mayan style, with spices) that you can either drink by itself or mix with milk. I want to know which burrito place that is. There aren't many.

Follow up to my last comment/ question for lexophile:
Is it Johny Banana? (I googled.)
