Cremeso de Chocolate at Xochi |
From drinking chocolates to grandiose chocolate art, the desserts at Xochi are as easy on the eyes as they delight the tastebuds. The delectable Cremeso de Chocolate is chocolate cake encapsulated intimately in creamy mousse, plated with strawberry and an elegant chocolate branch complete with blossoms.
Xochi is one of the best dining experiences I had in 2017. The bar program is brilliant, the cuisine is true art and service impeccable. If you are seeking an extraordinary dining experience in Houston, look no further than Xochi.
