As previously reported in tablehopper, CHARLES CHOCOLATES is opening an exhibition kitchen and shop in the Mission. The new spot opened its doors Friday March 15th and is ready to fill all of your chocolate needs with pavés, brownies, chocolate-covered almonds, and more. The new space features a retail area for making purchases, plus a glass-enclosed exhibition kitchen so you can watch the magic happen. In coming weeks, they’ll add seating to the patio as well. More confections will become available in the future, but there are quite a few delicious choices already, and if you can’t make it to the shop, check out the online store here. Hours are 11am-7pm daily. Welcome back, Chuck (and your peanut butterflies)! And just in time for Easter chocolate time. 535 Florida St. at Mariposa, 415-659-8770.
