But can you eat the dishes?
I thought I had seen just about everything at the Golden Globes. That is, until I got a sneak peek at the InStyle and Warner Bros. after-party, one of the hottest tickets in town. (InStyle and Warner Bros. are both parts of the Time Warner empire, as is CNN.)
Talk about decadence. There is a floor-to-ceiling chocolate lounge. That's right -- a lounge made out of chocolate. The sweet stuff is everywhere -- walls of dark, white and milk chocolate. And, yes, it's edible! (Didn't we see this in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"?) Towers of Godiva chocolate are used as accents. There are chocolate tables ... and a chocolate bar, of course. I swear, I felt as if I were swimming in a pool of fudge. For drinks there are chocolate martinis, or the Golden Globe drink of choice: champagne. Chocolate and bubbly, what's not to love? (For pictures of the after-party, click here. For video, click here.)
Can you post a picture? Would love to see it. Thank you.
Sounds like fun, but is it really sanitary to eat chocolate off of the walls?
We saw it first, of course in "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory", NOT the travesty of a remake. We did, however "read" it in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". Well, this "we" did, at least... does anyone read anymore?
Who cares?! It's a freakin chocolate wall!
picture please.... pretty, pretty, pretty please!!! :)
gee, how much did the chocolate lounge cost to construct - over $100k? what a waste of money - they should have donated the cost to charity and designed something more practical - adults and children are starving in this world and they make a lounge of chocolate...as marie "a" said, let them eat cake...
