Recchiuti's Chocolate Lab Dessert Cafe Opens in San Francisco

Chocolate Lab Dessert Cafe has opened in San Francisco’s Dogpatch neighborhood. The cafe, owned by Michael and Jacky Recchiuti, is inspired by Michael’s early years as a pastry chef as detailed in his cookbook Chocolate Obsession, as well as his travels with Jacky. In addition to cafe fare, the Chocolate + Sweets menu features plated chocolate and caramel desserts (such as Milk Chocolate Mandarin Mousse Cake and Bittersweet Chocolate Jasmine Custard), cookies (Triple Chocolate, Ginger Chocolate Pearls), pastries (seasonal-fruit tartlette), chocolate confections, ice cream (like Recchiuti’s signature Burnt Caramel), and hot and cold chocolate drinks.
