Exploring Raleigh NC, Videri Chocolate Factory

-
Several months ago Stephanie, Caleb, Maggie and ventured to Videri Chocolate Factory in Raleigh NC.  I had heard good things so I could not wait to experience it myself.   So off we went...
I love the interior all the old wood and brick.
Below is a quote from their website...
"Videri Chocolate Factory began as the shared dream of three chocolate lovers: Sam, Starr, and Chris. From the moment Sam first sunk his hands into a bag of cocoa beans, he knew he had a love for making delicious gourmet chocolate, and the talent to match." 
They have several items for sale in their showroom.
Below is another quote from their website.  I left the links for you to check out.
Explore the three parts of our factory:
  • The retail space, where you're able to shop for chocolate or sip on a freshly brewed coffee.
  • The factory floor, where you can witness all the chocolate making magic from start to finish.
  • The outdoor patio, where you're free to relax and enjoy your organic chocolate. Oh, and did we mention the patio is BYOB? Well, it is!

I did enjoy a shot of sipping chocolate.  Yummy!

Not sure of the story behind the art but you can see there are chocolates involved.
I looked up the word Videri thinking maybe it meant fox.  I was wrong.  Here is Wikipedia says
"Esse quam videri is a Latin phrase meaning "To be, rather than to seem". It has been used as a motto by a number of different groups."
So if you are in the mood for some delicious chocolate head on over to Videri Chocolate.  Lovely place and very nice people 

Happy Travels and Food Adventures!

This blast from the past was written back in 2016.  Wow, where does the time go?  I checked to make sure it is still open, and it is. Happy day! Linville Falls Winery After our somewhat strenuous hike down to the lower falls of Linville Gorge, Erica and I decided to reward ourselves with a visit to a local Winery,  Linville Falls Winery  All the way up the Gorge Trail on this somewhat warm fall day, we kept encouraging ourselves with the promise of wine and relaxation.  And it was just as we imagined...wonderful:-) Here is a description from their website. "Family owned and operated, Linville Falls Winery is the culmination of a life-long passion for wine by owner, Jack Wiseman. Wiseman has dreamed of growing grapes and opening a winery for more than 25 years, and now he and his family are pioneering a new High Country wine in Linville, North Carolina. Nestled in the lower end of Avery County near the Blue Ridge Parkway is a state of the art tasting room...
