Eclipse Chocolate is located in the cute and very hip area of South Park. They opened in February 2013 relocating from North Park. This month they will celebrate their 10 year anniversary with various events throughout September.
Eclipse has a fantastic drink menu of local draft beers, great wines and beautiful chocolate inspired concoctions. Happy hour is served Monday- Thursday from 5-7pm where all of their beer and wines are only $5. What makes Eclipse even more unique (other than their great chocolate) is they serve brunch daily from 9am-2pm. There are few places in San Diego you can get fantastic breakfast food any day of the week. Add the chocolate that is in some way incorporated into each dish, it is an experience you definitely will not forget.
Once a month Eclipse Chocolate in South Park hosts a delicious three-way pairing of local craft beer, truffles and handpicked cheese. Last night was their monthly event partnering up with Saint Archer brewery. These Threeways give local foodies the chance to try some delicious beer, flavorful cheese and the amazing truffles made at Eclipse Chocolate.
If you have never tried the chocolate made by Eclipse, you are definitely missing out. The owner/chocolatier Will Gustwiller truly understands how to create fantastic sweet and salty combinations. For the pairings Will works directly with the brewery to discover the cheese and chocolate that will perfectly accent each other.
For this tasting each cheese and chocolate was unique from each other allowing each of them to truly standout.
If you want to attend a future Chocolate Threeway you can contact Eclipse Chocolate at 619.578.2984. The cost is only $20, starts at 7pm and allows you to enjoy Happy Hour for the entire evening.
Move over Godiva, you have some competition.
