European Hot Chocolate is my life.

(heiße) Schokolade, chocolat chaud, cioccolata (CON PANNA per favore!)

American hot chocolate is all that I've known my whole entire life. This consists usually out of a packet of dried, milk chocolate colored packet and then one adds hot milk or hot water. American hot chocolate is usually chocolate flavored water/water or milk with a little bit of chocolate.

European hot chocolate, on the other hand, is a cup of chocolate with a little bit of milk.

 FOR ABOVE: visit Tonolo's in Venice Italy (one of the more locals spots in Venice... sure there are a few tourists but most are locals. They also have delicious in house made pastries... Go for their Berliner, it has an apple butter filling!) for a delicious cup of cioccolata, order it con panna, it is a glorified version of whipped cream!
 Seen above and below is a place in Padova, Italy, with mahogany counter tops and a feeling that your back in time. This is a real local's spot!
Enjoy!
