Vancouver is the best place in the world. Now I know what you are thinking, how can someone defend such a claim? With math of course! So here is the math that proves that Vancouver is the best place in the world:
Chocolate is the best + Mink Chocolates has won best chocolate in the world 2014 + Mink Chocolates is in Vancouver, therefore Vancouver = best place in the world.
Having Mink Chocolates just around the corner from my place of work is a gift and a curse. I can go down there whenever I want and sample the various flavors of chocolate that they have cooked up – including Taj Masala, peanut butter and jelly, and espresso. Or I can take a relaxing afternoon and enjoy a delightful chocolate fondue. No matter how I choose to indulge in Mink's chocolates I always make sure to take my time with the chocolate so that I can enjoy and savor it. Chocolate this good shouldn't be devoured, it should melt in your mouth so that the flavors can evolve and all the subtleties be explored.
If you only have a short time to visit Mink's I suggest that you explore the artisan small-batch chocolate bars, the flavors are diverse and delectable.
