The Chocolate Room,Velachery, Chennai


I spent a good part of my childhood being allergic to one food ingredient that is considered as ‘the food of Gods’ and sinful love of millions of lives. Thankfully, I outgrew the allergy as I entered my teens and since then attacked the world of chocolates with vengeance!!

So, Chocolate room was like living a dream, where everything around me was chocolate and only chocolate. I visited this place just once, as I discovered this when I was at the fag end of my Chennai stint & landed up having a 3 course chocolate meal!!!!. That’s true; everything from starters to main course to desert was a chocolate by-product. Imagine having Pizzas, wraps, sandwiches all with chocolate in it. It’s like attaining a chocolate nirvana!!

However too much of something is really bad enough. As a foodie,I strongly believe that a good meal should leave you satisfied,wanting for more and not so over-whelmed that you don’t want to see nor have more of that meal for a while. So my recommendation with Chocolate room is that, don’t order all courses with chocolate, take a mix of chocolate and some salty food, like the normal sandwiches etc. and you’ll thank me for it.


What I loved in the menu were the choco shakes, namely the Dutch truffle shakes, the brownie shake and the in-house shake were lip-smacking and sinful. Also, the pan cakes oozed out tons of chocolate. However, didn’t really enjoy the Chocolate pizza too much.

The Verdit: All chocolate lovers, visit to this place is worth it. Also a note, this place isn’t too expensive unlike the other chocolate places in Chennai and totally worth the price
