57/365: Chocolate Cafe... Or Is It?

.
Cafe Cioccolato

This place is a half-block from my office building so I walk by it a lot. Cafe Cioccolato, dedicated to all things chocolate. You can see a counter full of confections on the lower right. I believe you can get a chocolate martini. There is a bunch of odd sculpture scattered around. And there's almost never anyone in there. On rare occasions I see someone sipping a drink in the chairs near the window or buying something at the counter. The place has been open more than a year, so how does it survive? There's something funny going on. Maybe it has a trap door leading to a tunnel and a secret entrance to Willy Wonka's factory. Hmmm, what other possibilities?

781-GUNS It's the first day of gun weekend on St. Louis Daily Photo.

Bridal showers. They rent it out on the weekends. The space is actually great for it it...they did a cash bar at the one I attended (it was a large crowd of ladies)...seemed to be a good revenue generator.
