Omar and The Chocolate Factory

Last week Lora and I went to the Scharffen Berger Factory in Berkeley. One of my friends is actually the President of Scharffen Berger.

They have a fantastic restaurant and tour. I recommend both. It’s the only chocolate factory that gives tours.

Best chocolate ever! I wish I knew you have internal connections there -- we just did marketing project in school on Scharffen Berger. Unfortunately, Hershey's may slowly ruin the company...

Actually it's not the only chocolate factory that does tours -I've been around Cadbury's World in Birmingham, UK (which makes the proper cadburys chocolate - not the horrible cadbury's stuff you get in the States.
Was a very interesting trip (although overpriced). The pure chocolate coffee extract was disgusting though.
