We are back so soon to this amazing chocolate location because it was just so delicious and fun in October. Space is limited for this class as Rhonda Kave, a member of Les Dames d’ Escoffier, who has been making chocolates for over twenty-five years and is partners in a cocoa farm in Belize, opened Roni-Sue’s in October 2007. We begin with a guided bean-to-bar chocolate tasting and learning class with some sparkling wine. We’ll geek out as much as you like about the magic bean! And of course, you will have some bubbly as a palate cleanser in between the chocolates! We follow this with cheeses selected by Anne Saxelby, owner of Saxelby Cheesemongers and a chocolate pairings. Anne Saxelby is quite famous in the cheese world having started out at Murray’s Cheese and apprenticed on both American and French farms as a cheesemaker. She has become increasingly celebrated for her unusual selection of American and French farmhouse cheeses. She supplies hundreds of New York area restaurants, including Gramercy Tavern, Blue Hill, Minetta Tavern, the Dutch and Daniel Boulud restaurants and she will be supplying us this night. I will be out of town so Juliane will be running this event. I had to twist her arm
