Chocolate and Other Desserts Walking Tour

Description:

• Suzie Wharton, who also conducts a chocoholics walking tour of Melbourne's top choc spots, has branched out a little on this tour to include desserts. After meeting at the ice cream 'Mecca' Charmaine's at Southgate Food Court, Suzie will take you down the lanes and arcades of central Melbourne. Tastings, tales and tips on dessert making are a feature of the tour. After stops at Haigh's Chocolate (in the beautiful and historic Block Arcade), the Pancake Parlour and Brown Bean cafe, the tour finishes at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Collins Street. Here you go behind the scenes at the hotel's pastry kitchen and can quiz the dessert-meisters on their secrets. The best thing is that after this two-hour walk you can indulge guilt free in afternoon tea.
