Um dos meus lugares favoritos de Londres é a área de Southbank. Lá podemos ter uma vista privilegiada do Parlamento, do Rio Tamisa, do London Eye, da animação constante feita pelos animadores de rua, enfim...um dos lugares especiais que Londres oferece.
Ao caminhar por lá parámos no mercado de Southbank. Lá podem encontrar várias barraquinhas com comida tradicional de diversos países.
Claro que o meu desafio agora é encontrar algo isento de glúten onde quer que vá. E assim foi!!
Acabei por encontrar uma barraquinha - The Chocolatier.
Assim que vi - No Gluten - parei logo! Tinha de ver bem o que era. Percebi que era dedicado a chocolates (óbvio, não? :P ), mas passado pouco tempo vi que havia algo especial...não era só a beleza dos chocolates, mas os produtos que estavam expostos...
Desde os típicos chocolates em tablet, a chocolate em pó, que pode ser adicionado a leite, mas também a bolos, etc etc, e por fim compota de chocolate. Sim, compota!!! Acabei por comprar a de Cereja, Cardamomo (gengibre) e Chocolate Negro de Madagáscar! E que boa que é!!! :))
Obviamente tive de provar um pouquinho de (quase) tudo. Estes chocolates têm um sabor especial...diferente! Um sabor que conjuga aquilo que conhecemos do chocolate com sabores/aromas da Índia. Uma mistura perfeita entre sabores do Ocidente e do Oriente!

In English
One of my favorite places in London is the Southbank area. There we have a privileged view of the Parliament, the River Thames, the London Eye, the constant animation by the street entertainers, well ... one of the special places that London offers.
While walking there, we stopped at the Southbank Market. There you can find several stalls with traditional food from different countries around the world.
Of course, my challenge now is to find something gluten free wherever I go. And so it was !!
I finally found a stall named The Chocolatier.
As soon as I saw - No Gluten - I immediately stopped! I had to see well what was that about. I realized that it was dedicated to chocolates (quite obvious, right? : P), but after a while, I saw that there was something special... it was not only the beauty of chocolates, but the products that were exposed ...
Since the typical chocolate bars, chocolate powder, which can be added to milk, but also cakes, etc etc, and ultimately chocolate jam. Yes, jam!!! I ended up buying the Cherry, Cardamom (ginger) and Madagascan Dark Chocolate! It is just amazing!!! :))
Of course I had to try a little bit of (almost) everything. These chocolates have a special taste...a different one! A flavour that combines what we know about chocolate with flavours / aromas from India. A perfect blend of flavours from the East and West!
