Secret Edinburgh: Chris Cox's chocolate binge

 

If I'm meeting someone for a cuppa and need a bit of a sugar fix I will always get them to meet me at Chocolate Soup.

 

It's well handy being right off the Royal Mile and does the sickliest, but most delightful hot chocolates you could want.

 

It's always far too busy and full of people yet I seem to be able to nail getting a table and stuffing my face with chocolate.

 

You'll tell if I've been in there. I will have chocolate round my mouth and staining at least one piece of my clothing.

 

Another place I'll often pop to between seeing shows is Mother India.

 

They do the best Indian breads in Edinburgh. Simple as. The rest of their stuff is just as good. So yes, if you want to stalk me, probably best to try either of those two places.
