ZOKOKO

Hot Chocolate Drink, $3.80

After enrolling Heinkel and Hildyane to another school, or simply transferring them to another high school, we went to Lapstone where Stormer Music is located. We had to pay TonTon's tuition fee for Saxophone. But was not able to do it coz the school was closed. Just forgotten that twas Friday and they're closed Fridays to Sundays.

Then there was this Penrith Visitor Guide Magazine beside me in the car. I thought how about going to the shops being shown in the Magazine. We need to know the different places and businesses in our city just like when we were young. Back in the Philippines, in our town, we almost knew everyone selling this and that. But I know we couldn't do that anymore here coz the city is big but at least we should know the different things our present city has to offer.

It caught my attention this Zokoko Chocolate Factory and Cafe. Just wondering is there a chocolate factory here? I love chocolates so we drove to Emu Heights. As expected coz of the given address that it's located in a small business complex. It's like a cafe shop catering only people in that complex. Yes, it's only small. And the parking is very limited. Just lucky that on our first visit there was a vacant space for us to park our car. 

The place is white and clean, very neat. Then we can see one of their machines coz there's a glass window in that room where the machine is. But there is a sign of taking photo is not allowed. The ban is only applicable to the machine so I was able to take photos of what we've ordered. People coming when we were there were sophisticated oldies and business people. The problem is that you don't know what to order since they don't have menu. I wonder why? So I just presumed since it's a cafe they should have my favorite cappuccino and that they should have hot chocolate. Then I saw this chocolate cake, and looked like inviting me, saying, "taste me!"

Cappuccino, $3.50

We were having "fun" conversations that my husband, Willy spilled the sugar. But we both agreed that the cappuccino was very good. Willy is very hard to please so if he say's good it must be really good. The hot chocolate is very chocolatey, not sugary but you can really taste the chocolate.

Berry Frangipan

Chocolate Cake with Ice Cream, $9.50

Hildyane ordered Berry frangipan and she liked it. The chocolate cake is moist, light and chocolate rich. It's not that sweet. It's also expensive huh! But it's worth it.

We visited the shop twice more. The third one, was a mistake. I shouldn't brought kids there after school when they were hungry. They ordered lots yet they asked for more so we ended up in MacDonalds. But if you want to have a nice chat with a friend or with a fellow business man or simply you want to eat and drink chocolate by yourself, then I would go to Zokoko cafe. Oh, yes I keep on forgetting to buy their packed drinking chocolate. It said organic.  *. ˛*. * ˛. *。
