Chocolate lovers can cozy up this winter in The Greenhouse at The Ritz-Carlton Chicago (a Four Seasons Hotel) with a creamy, steaming bowl of the hotel’s famous homemade hot chocolate.  This soothing treat, prepared by Executive Pastry Chef Anthony Chavez, is available in both adult and child varieties.

The Ritz’s hot chocolate is a homemade ganache made with rich Valrhona Pur Caraibe chocolate and heavy cream. It’s served “French Style” in a large bowl, not a cup. Complementing the ganache are homemade marshmallows, homemade chocolate diamants (sugar cookies) and whipped cream, each in its own bowl, with the yummy quartet served on a single tray.

Children will enjoy their own special version served with whipped cream, homemade blue and pink marshmallows along with chocolate diamants. Perfect for dipping!

Homemade Hot Chocolate “French-Style” is available in The Greenhouse of The Ritz-Carlton Chicago, an atrium setting offering sweeping views of the hotel’s sky lit twelfth floor lobby and beautiful holiday décor, including a grand 25-foot-tall holiday tree.

The Greenhouse at The Ritz-Carlton Chicago is open from 11:30 a.m. to 12:00 midnight, Monday through Thursday; from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., Friday and Saturday; and 2:30 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. on Sunday.
