How To Spend a Big Fat Weekend in Tucson, Arizona | Bon Appétit

"A bean-to-bar chocolate factory that also makes bonbons, has an ambitious drink and coffee program, an in-house pastry program, and serves breakfast and lunch? Oh, and it sells housemade choco tacos too? Yeah, it’s impressive as hell. Go toMonsoon Chocolatesfor breakfast—it’s quiet and the savory oat bowl with winter greens, pickled daikon, buckwheat groats, and a ramen egg is perfectly salted. Order the seasonal hot chocolate, especially if it contains tahini and honey. And, if you’re with someone else, also get the not-too-sweet-but-just-about cacao nib horchata because it’s refreshing. Then, to take home, get a salvadoreña, a gluten-free cheesecake-meets-poundcake made with rice flour and cotija cheese, and the 75 percent dark chocolate Esmeraldas chocolate bar with notes of dark red fruits and coffee. I wish I brought home more." - ByCarey Polis
