Top choice in San Francisco
SF-born chocolatier Mindy Fong hits the sweet spot between East and West with only-in-SF treats like passion-fruit caramels, Thai-curry hot chocolate and the legendary peanut Buddha with mango jam. Fusion flavors originally inspired by Fong's pregnancy cravings have won national acclaim, but Jade keeps its SF edge with experimental chocolates featuring ingredients like miso and curry powder.
A second location is at One Market Plaza (open Monday to Friday 10am to 5:30pm).
