Chocolate Salon!

This Chocolate Salon event is coming up on March 15, 2014. It's going to take place in San Francisco - http://www.meetup.com/chocolate-69/events/155256912/

 We arrived at Fort Mason Center and discovered these two food trucks parked at the entrance. It was still early so there was a short line. However, at lunch time, the lines were much longer. 

A sign at the entrance. 

 

Neat interior architecture which was unexpectedly modern. 

There were many tables such as this one where chocolate businesses were promoting their products. Most of them were giving out samples! I didn't take photos of the tables that represented wine and fragrance businesses but there were several at the event as well.

What I liked the most were the chocolate sculptures and other items that were on display near the entrance. I was actually expecting to see a lot more things like this.

The next time I go to one of these Chocolate Salons, I'd like to listen to some of the presentations. This time, the nice weather was luring us outside though. 

When it was time to leave, we headed out of the building to enjoy the beautiful day and the perfect view of the San Francisco Bay along with the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance. What a perfect way to top off the afternoon.
