"Just standing inside of this chocolate shop in Soho feels like a holiday activity. The ceiling is covered in Christmas lights, and it smells like they might have a cocoa tree growing in the back. L.A. Burdick has been in the neighborhood for decades, and they serve several different kinds of hot chocolate. But the spicy hot cocoa is the one you want. It has the thick consistency of drinking chocolate, but it’s sweeter. The hint of cayenne balances things out nicely." - will hartman, carina finn koeppicus, nikko duren
