We like what we saw and heard from Fog City News owner Adam Smith and suave Chocolatier Michael Mischer today on our lunch break. Fog City News is a nice, clean space on Market Street offering high quality chocolates and confections with a vast assortment of worldly magazines. Today's event was the first in a series of Friday afternoon visits (12 noon to 2 p.m.) from well known chocolatiers, and happens again on December 8 (Lindy Martin) and 15th (John Scharffenberger, coincidentally on our birthday [ed -- Happy birthday, SFist Mary!] should draw a lot of folks).
Mischer's hand crafted truffles on sample were Hot Cinnamon (nice cayenne note) and Lebkuchen, which is gingerbread.
Today's top bon mots -- and lickable photos -- after the jump.
Smith: "Think of chocolate as a journey, not a destination." We've got our chocolate passport ready for that one and are up for the challenge.
Mischer (explaining the high quality of his chocolates): "You wouldn't buy a loaf of bread at a bakery and let it sit in your home for four weeks. Same with my chocolates."
Also: "Have pleasure," and "Small amounts of good chocolate are better."
