Universal’s Toothsome Chocolate Emporium Debuts

  • by

Fantastic news for all chocoholics! The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen at Universal CityWalk has officially opened! This unique restaurant is reminiscent of a Victorian steampunk chocolate emporium and is hosted by character ambassadors and world travelers Penelope and Jacques. 

As the story goes…the love of chocolate is at the core of Penelope’s family. Penelope, an innovator at heart, created Jacques, her trusty robot and confidant, to travel and explore the world. Upon returning to her small cottage home in London, after an extended trip abroad, Penelope discovered that her parents ventured out on a quest to find her, leaving a simple message – “We have set out to join you in your adventures. Surely the world isn’t so big that we can’t find you. We shall look for you wherever chocolate can be found.” 

Thus, Penelope knew what she had to do. Armed with the insight she had on all things chocolate, Penelope created The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen. Her mission to share her passion and love of the sweet treat with the world was also grounded in the hope that one day her parents would find her.

Its interior is adorned with a collection from Penelope’s archives of chocolate research and various steampunk gadgetry and inventions!

Within the eclectic space, guests can enjoy a full-service restaurant, a Dessert Foundry for grab-n-go over-the-top milkshakes and a Candy Smith counter to experience a cornucopia of sweet treats, including 30 different flavors of macarons, truffles and an expansive offering of deliciousness, along with unique apparel and themed collectibles.

Executive Chef Carlos Garcia sits at the helm of The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen and with everything from crisp salads and hearty soups to tasty burgers, flatbreads and steaks, CityWalk’s latest restaurant caters inspirational fare for every member of the family. 

Jacques’ specialty milkshakes include Red Velvet, Brownie, Cookie Jar, Espresso Buzzzz, Key Lime Pie, Heavenly Hazelnut, Marshmallow Crisp, Strawberry Cheesecake, That’s Mint and Pineapple Upside Down. Sweet sundaes and desserts include Brookies, Cookies & Cream, Apple Pie, Banana Cream Pie, Strawberry Shortcake, and Chocolate Brownie Bark to name a few.
