If you are headed out this way, make sure you are very clear as to how to flag down the proper bus. I arranged in advance for one of the wine and chocolate tours advertised on the Chocolates Simon Coll website. It was 13.5 euro for a 90-minute tour/tasting at Codorniu and an hour tour/tasting at Simon Coll. I was blown away by the whole thing. Unlike most tourist destinations, the staff at both locations seemed genuinely excited to share their stories and products with us. It made the whole experience that much more fun. I just couldn't believe that for ~$15 I got two glasses of cava, all the chocolate I could ever want, and a half day's worth of entertainment. The Simon Coll experience alone is worth the visit to this quaint town. It isn't just one of those boring tours where you sit in a room and someone shows you a slideshow of a cocoa plantation. They call it a "chocolate experience" instead of a "tour" for a reason. They have an entire audiovisual room that transports you into the chocolate making experience - it is really innovative and unexpected. You get to taste chocolate from the cocoa nib form to the finished truffle and all of the steps in between. If you don't have time for a tour, the shop itself is a real treat. They have a ton of variety and they let you sample almost everything in the store! It really felt like heaven.

I can't believe I forgot to take pictures in this last trip to my hometown! Definitively one of the…read morebest and oldest coffee shops in town. It used to be a store where you go and buy coffee in bulk to brew at home (back when there were no Starbucks, not that there is one in my native town!). People decades back brew a lot of coffee at home instead of having the cafelito in the terraces in downtown, so this was a classic place to go and get 'Cafe Pont' one of the most beloved brands. With the time the many decades old coffee store has expanded and got hipsterized so to speak. Very lovely and cozy.

Montroig also has open air tables in the back, plus seating rows on the street front. We avoided the front since that's where the smokers sit and the smell wafts inside. The breakfast menu is extensive with every kind of egg option, breakfast style and espresso coffee choice imaginable. You'll be sure to find something on the menu. I chose the English Breakfast one and it is a big breakfast. Imagine American Breakfast without hash browns but with baked beans and tomato slice. I just got the American the next time. Both were nothing special, just basic. Friends liked their cold cereal and fruit offerings. Service was off both times as the young servers didn't come by enough, forgot to bring requested items or even forgot orders. Food took forever to arrive, and not all at the same time. We were on holiday and really had nowhere to rush off to anyway.
