Hotel Chocolat - Channel 5 Now

[Ambivalent Dave]

Documentary including coverage of the shop opening in the Bridges. Coming across alright

Little known fact, the CEO was born in Seaham, and seems canny proud that he’s opened one in Sunderland

Neither did I - till he just mentioned it in the footage of the Sunderland shop opening.

He said he was bringing the company to the “heartlands”

Worth watching this on catchup for the Sunderland footage. The other bloke with him, his dad was from Sunderland too. Don’t know if it was that peter Harris bloke mentioned on that article

Edit: Enjoyed that. Sunlun came across well.

Too many people quick to knock the town centre. It’s no better or worse than loads of others up and down the country.

There’s a Hotel Chocolat here though

The chocolate is nice as well

 

[bonsai]

Nice but overpriced.

My brother used to work in their factory. He’d bring home so many freebies I got fed up of the stuff (it’s really good gear, mind)! Sickened myself off good chocolate and started craving Mars bars instead.

Quality.

Still got some reasonably nice stuff cheap

Looks as if they use more cocoa and less sugar which increases the costs.
