Align Your Chakra with a Truffle

Biting into a peanut butter bonbon from Vosges Haut-Chocolat can be a transcendent experience. So, evidently, can being in the Chaturanga position. Combine the two and you’re well on your way to inner bliss at the Chocolate and Book Signing by David Romanelli at Vosges’ Armitage location.

Romanelli, aka ‘Yeah Dave,’ is a Yahoo! Wellness Expert who believes in “getting to ecstasy through wine, chocolate, and your iPod playlist.” According to his website, he also believes in “building tolerance for others, even people who have BO or fart.” These, and no doubt many more maxims, are espoused in his new book, Yeah Dave’s Guide to Living in the Moment.

While our idea of “living in the moment” trends more toward watching reruns of How I Met Your Mother with a can of Reddi Whip, we're willing to give pretty much anything a go if means sampling the luscious goods from Vosges.
