Warm up with this soothing hot chocolate
Badiani’s famously serves up some of London’s best hot chocolate and sorbets. On a chilly weekend, we love nothing better than to pop down to the store and grab the delicious vegan Venezuelan dark chocolate sorbet. And the viral hot chocolate is, of course, the dreamiest you can get, and there’s a pistachio version, too, which is delicious.
