Seeing so lots of local reviews of French Broad Chocolate Lounge, the words "chocolate" and…read more"lounge" were all I needed to convince me to stop by. :)) The place is adorable--cute, cozy, and filled with tempting treats everywhere you look. They offer unique ice cream flavors, handcrafted chocolate domes -- passion fruit, chai chocolate, etc and decadent pastries, and, of course, their famous Liquid Truffle drinking chocolate. Every dessert looked amazing! I also love the wall arts!! The service was warm and welcoming, making the experience even sweeter. Just a warning: don't let your stomach and your eyes do the shopping at the same time, or you'll easily walk out $30 lighter. But , it worth it if you have a sweet tooth!

When my friend saw I was in Asheville she mentioned we had to get the shaved ice at Sweets and…read moreSeats. She said it was the best shaved ice she's ever had and way better than any she even had in Hawaii. I was intrigued and suggested to my husband we stop by after dinner one night. This cafe is soooo cute. I'm here on vacation and trying not to work, but if i needed to work for a few hours I would definitely go here. I'd work and eat one dessert after another. The mango shaved ice was even better than expected. It was ginormous and I was full from dinner, but did a pretty good job eating most of it because it was too delicious to stop. My husband got a piece of blueberry cheesecake and i couldn't help, but have a few bites of that as well. I was hoping to make it back a second (or third) time, but sadly don't think we are going to have time. Another reason to come back to Asheville and it may just be my first stop!

Loved their menu as well. Although their mini cakes and other treats appealed to me as well, I opted to try their Taro Shaved Ice (they had 2 other flavors as well...think Mango and Mocha?). Well, their Taro Shaved Ice was PERFECT!!! The shaved ice was nice and dry, and the toppings (Boba, Lychee jelly, and Strawberries...even whipped cream on top) were generous and delicious! LOVED the place...and I can't wait to return! My husband will absolutely loved their version of Shaved Ice...What a treat to come!

The aroma of chocolate wraps around you the second you walk through the door -- rich, warm, and completely unforgettable. There's an entire area where you can watch the actual machines they use to craft their chocolate, which adds so much charm and character. But our favorite part was the cozy coffee section. A simple caramel latte ended up being the highlight -- balanced, smooth, and exactly what we didn't know we needed. A little moment of serendipity we're glad we found.

As soon as we walked through the door we were treated like we were visiting family. The atmosphere…read morewas welcoming. Our questions were answered. Recommendations were made. The BEST bakery I have been to in a very long time. We started out sharing a ham and cheese croissant. The ham and cheese was baked into the croissant. Light, flaky, and very delicious. I am surprised my husband let me have more than one bite. We ordered the quiche of the day and the one available every day. The ham and cheese was the quiche of the day. It was light, creamy, and very rich. The other quiche had spinach, feta, and tomatoes. It was equally delicious. Go and check them out. You will not be sorry. Go now.
