Before leaving Brussels, I had one more important task to take care of--buying Belgian chocolate!
The owner of my hostel had suggested a number of affordable places to visit. I choose the one closest to the hostel--the Zaabar Chocolate Factory.
I walked into the store/factory and was greeted with the scent of fresh chocolate. In the front of the store, you can actually watch employees as the make chocolate!
There were a TON of delicious and interesting flavors to choose from--which made it exceedingly difficult to narrow it down to just a few. To name a few: dark chocolate with cinnamon, dark chocolate with almonds, and dark chocolate with peppermint. A few more unusual flavors: dark chocolate with pink berries from Bahia, dark chocolate with lemongrass from Sri Lanka, and dark chocolate with pepper from Jamaica.
Of course, I couldn't resist eating a bit before getting to Alicante. Belgian chocolate was the perfect snack in the airport!
