RALEIGH, NC, November 17, 2012 (Press-News.org) Dean Ogan, owner of Rocky Top Hospitality (http://www.rockytophospitality.com/), has announced that The Daily Planet Cafe will host a discussion exploring the science behind one of the most popular sweets, chocolate. The event, which will be held on Thursday, Nov. 29, will cover the history of chocolate from the ancient world to modern manufacturing methods. Additionally, the event will feature current conversations surrounding the scientific research behind chocolate for both children and adults. Samples will be offered throughout the event by Videri Chocolate Factory, a downtown Raleigh factory dedicated to changing the face of hand-crafted, artisan chocolate. Located inside the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, The Daily Planet Cafe frequently hosts discussions of science as it relates to the hospitality industry. The events are free and open to the public.
QUOTES:
"We are hard pressed to find anyone these days that can resist the temptation and melted goodness of chocolate," said Ogan. "However, most people are unfamiliar with its origins or the journey it takes from its plant form to store shelves. Our science of chocolate event is a great opportunity to learn more about one of America's most popular indulgences."
