Best soft serve I have ever had!…read more We stopped at Chocolate Favoris on an evening in mid May, when our cruise ship, Norwegian Bliss, docked in Victoria for the evening. We walked into the downtown area and browsed some shops. We decided to grab a sweet treat before walking back to our ship. After walking in and out of a few other ice cream shops, we noticed Chocolate Favoris and went in to check it out. We immediately noticed that this spot was different. All four of us ordered a different soft serve dessert and we were blown away. I had chocolate with hazelnut spread and hazelnut chocolate candies in a waffle cup. Amazing! We devoured our treats on the walk back to our ship and they were, by far, the best part of our short visit to Victoria and the best soft serve any of us had ever had. Highly recommend!

There are so many combinations that it's almost hard to decide what to get. It does get pretty busy, and I didn't find the staff to be quite as friendly or welcoming as some of the other places I visited in Victoria. That said, they keep things moving and get you served quickly even when there's a crowd. Rich, indulgent, and incredibly satisfying. If you're craving something sweet while exploring Victoria, it's definitely worth checking out!

When we got back from an adventure at Butchart Gardens, we stopped by for dessert! We got the Hazel Amour and it was enough for us to share. There are so many offers and combinations that I could see us coming back here the next time we're back in BC. If you're staying in Victoria, this place gets a little crazier when the cruise ships are docked. There are only a few tables outside so it's perfect on a sunny day or if you plan to explore the city with a treat in hand.

Everything in the display case looked delicious, but we decided on the lychee raspberry & rosewater pastry, the pistachio ganash tart and the pork & fennel sausage roll. The pistachio tart was fresh with a rich nutty flavor, though it took a little finesse to eat because the filling kept wanting to spill out. My favorite was the lychee raspberry & rosewater pastry. It was flaky, with a delicate sweetness from the fruits and a subtle floral note from the rosewater. You can really taste the dedication in these pastries. I'd recommend going early in the day as many of their items tend to sell out quick.

All three were yummy, but my favorite was the Filipino sweet bread with the cheese on top. It was sweet, savory, and buttery all at the same time - so good! They offered to warm it up, too, which is their suggestion before eating. It's run by a husband and wife who are really lovely people. We talked for a bit and their warmth and genuinely reflects what their business signs state: "Together we can 'bake' the world a better place." It's a small place so there are only a few seats, but that's okay for a quick bite and rest. Otherwise everyone gets it to go. We got there right at a good time because after our order, a TON of people came in. One lady even said, "This is the place." It's located in Victoria's Chinatown, right at the end of the literal Fan Tan Alley. Try it!
