Any shop that has a chocolate fountain out the front is a immediate winner with me. It's a fountain. Of chocolate. 'Nuff said.
I'm a regular at the Central Markets and it's almost physically impossible for me to pass Providore on any visit without being enticed over and buying something.
Who can blame me: they have a truly spectacular array of gourmet chocolate goodies, melt-in-your-mouth truffles, handmade cookies, fruity gateaux and all the usual cakes, cream puffs, muffins, cannoli, macarons and... wow, drooling already. That's not to mention the chocolate fondue fountains- you can buy strawberries, marshmallows or waffles and then dip them into the fountains of either milk or dark chocolate. Yum. I think I had a dream like that one time.
This place is a sweet-lover's dream come true. Fresh and handmade, their offerings are both completely indulgent and completely delicious. This has to be my favourite place for cakes and chocolate goodies in Adelaide. In fact, why aren't I there right now? read more
