Organic chocolate workshop Hakawa Chocolate is a homegrown business whose devotion to Hong Kong is in the name: Hakawa is a portmanteau of Hong Kong and kakawa, the Olmec word for chocolate. Bonus points for recognising the Olmecs, the Mesoamerican OG chocolate-makers. Find it at the end of Gough Street, where you’ll see the glowing ‘Bean to Bar’ sign before you see the tiny storefront. Licensed as a food factory, a two-person team inside makes solid and drinking chocolate from scratch every day and the resulting flavour has an intensity that’s hard to find anywhere else.
