    Free Hot Chocolate!
    Laurie C.

    Amazing chocolate with an incredible story! I love how they found a cacao plant in Peru thought to be extinct for over 100 years and now propagated it into thousands of new plants to produce the purest chocolate!

    Turns out Fortunato Chocolate has been in business for 15 years selling exquisite Peruvian chocolate to restaurant wholesale accounts. They pivoted to include retail and online access since the pandemic. I had not heard of them until seeing them featured on KING5 Evening two days ago. So late this foggy morning I headed from Shoreline to a non-descript building off a main arterial in Issaquah...a long drive but easy peasy using Google GPS and travelling during off peak hours (1/27/22). Oh darn, I coincidentally just finished my last bar of dark chocolate. Yeah twist my arm when it comes to rare sources of chocolate, lol. First thing upon entering is that scent of chocolate and the retail area. Various items available to sample, for purchase, and of course, say yes to the kind offer of free hot chocolate with marshmallows! There is also active production from cacao bean to bar going on, seeing staff members busy at work. I can tell there is a huge market for their product after seeing the boxes all wrapped and palletized ready for shipment. Definitely check out their website, www.fortunatochocolate.com for additional detailed information about their company, product line, and recipes. Full disclosure as a former assistant pastry chef, one featured recipe, please they are called macaRONs, not macaROONs. Sorry, I digress with this PSA. I had a pleasant convo with one of the owners, Adam, while onsite. Very welcoming and personable. But more folks were stopping in, so I kept my convo brief. I did purchase a 500 gram bar of their Fortunato Number 4, 68% dark chocolate ($20) and an 8 ounce bag of Javier's Hot Chocolate Mix ($10). I am sipping this delicious sample as I am writing this post. Detour off Exit 17 on I-90 East while in Issaquah, and support a family run, single origin chocolate company. Delicious!

    Visited Fortunato Chocolate in Issaquah today, sampling some of their chocolates, drinking hot cocoa and purchasing some house roasted chocolate almonds. Everything we tasted was delicious and creamy. The chocolate covered almonds are truly the best I've had. (We took our samples and cocoa outside to eat/drink, for Covid safety. Highly recommend, if you're in Issaquah or want to treat yourself to some delicious chocolate, from the rare Fortunato farm Pure Nacional cacao trees in Peru. This is apparently one of the best cacao sources in the world. The gentleman who helped us was super nice.

    Seriously the best chocolate turtles I've had in my life! This family-owned shop is worth the visit. Free hot chocolate is always a plus. Ingredients used are made with clean ingredients and none of the icky stuff. All natural.

    This is so dangerous because I'm about 5 minutes away from Fortunato Chocolate. This might be my favorite chocolate on the Eastside. I first heard about Fortunato and their Peruvian chocolate when I went to grab a donut at Top Pot and I saw their sandwich board signs. I thought I'd check it out. At their first location, they offer free hot chocolate and all the chocolate products to sample. I just love their fruit bar combinations. Orange Marshmallow Dark Milk Chocolate and the Mango Chili Dark Milk Chocolate Bars are my favorite. The bars are $9, but they're high quality bars. I also love their regular Dark Chocolate Cacao bars. The 68% Dark Cacao is my favorite. I buy their bars and cut them up and when I need something sweet to end the night, I'll have a little piece of the 68% Cacao to curb those cravings. Finally, I also recommend the chocolate covered dates. They're perfect for charcuterie boards for something to snack in the day time. Fortunato just opened their 2nd storefront and looks like they'll be bringing in more foot traffic. Currently, for their new opening, they're handing out frozen chocolate bananas. If you're in the Issaquah area, I highly recommend coming here and picking up some chocolate to take home.

    More yummy offerings for our 2nd visit. Dark chocolate covered dates, pretzels and awesome s'mores. Plus the free hot chocolate is still flowing. Yum and double yum!

    Chocolate haul!

They had free samples of pretty much everything on the shelf, so we were able to try them before buying. Everything in the store is organically grown, and the cacao is Peruvian pure Nacional cacao, something I had never tried before. The flavor combinations here are wonderful. You will surely find something you enjoy. The store owner was very friendly and helpful. We had such a great experience here, highly recommend stopping by and getting some of the best chocolate you can buy.

I love…read moretheir selection of produce, they always have the juiciest strawberries and a delicious variety of apples. I love that they have such a diverse selection of fruit; my sister is always able to find something new and exotic to try. I love their sushi bar! My go to is shrimp tempura and I don't like it with avocado and the last time I was there, their sushi bar chef told me that they don't ever put avocado in their rolls with shrimp, but if I did want it made to order they could do that for me! Shopping local is super important to me and I love that at PCC all my fave local brands like Ellenos and Blazing Bagels are all in one place! I love shopping here and hope to try a PCC cooking class soon!!

The membership has evolved a lot since joining. I appreciate the free members item the most but regardless I'm happy that I joined. I chose Pcc often for their healthy options + baked goods. My personal favorites are the mighty'o donuts! And their vegan pies, brownies, and cookies. Staff are friendly. Market is easy to navigate and clean. My biggest complaint is the inconsistent offers of vegan pies. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. I was happy to see the vegan pumpkin and vegan fruit pies. But then I go to this location and nope!! It is easy to just make them dairy free and you do t have to add the vegan sticker. That's what Costco does now with their fruit pies!!! The other complaint is the deli switched to pre-packaged items only. Which probably makes a lot of sense with staffing issues and or peak rush hours. However, if that's the plan, at the very least please secure your containers. And even offer stickers or rubber bands for extra support. Why is this upsetting? I got home from my last haul and my curry tofu spilled out everywhere, landing on my rug & me, which stained it yellow so obviously very disappointing.

This place has such a cozy, welcoming vibe with plenty of seating to sit back and actually enjoy your drink (bonus points for offering real "for here" cups!). Their selection is impressive--everything from classic coffee drinks to a variety of pastries, plus even beer and other beverages if you're stopping by later in the day. I had a savory biscuit with cheese and herbs that was great and the perfect pairing with my cortado. There were tons of other tempting options too, from pastries to bagels and more. Overall, just a really nice spot with great offerings and a relaxed atmosphere. Such a great find--I'll definitely be back!

My go-to is a 16oz iced oat milk with mocha and I love how perfectly the chocolate is incorporated into the drink every time. No matter how long it takes me to finish my drink, if the ice all melts or I drink it quickly, it tastes delicious. I just wish they had better food. I don't love how greasy their croissants and sandwiches are. I wish they had better breakfasts or served food with protein that was less oily. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a sandwich I've gotten from here, and I swear I try them at least every other month. The vibes totally make up for their gross sammies and are my favourite thing about this place!! I love coming here for a reading date or to craft and yap with friends. It feels like such a community oriented space and I love getting to enjoy it with my friends. I just wish they were open later than 6pm.
