Chocolateria San Churro, Highpoint Maribyrnong
Named after a Spanish monk who espoused the healing qualities of chocolate in the 1500s, this Spanish dessert cafe chain could be said to possess similar qualities in the realm of instant gustatory gratification. Yes, Chocolateria San Churro is a phenomenon alright, one that has swept Australia into a veritable frenzy over mouth-watering traditional Spanish sweets.
The main attraction has got to be the churros, or Spanish doughnuts, which you dip into a pot of seriously indulgent melted couverture chocolate. But you'll also find gooey Spanish hot chocolates, fine truffles, smooth milk and ice shakes, and shareable ice cream-based desserts.
