Fine chocolates -- especially dark chocolates -- are a treat for the Recessionista. Noka (pronounced pretty much like it's spelled) is one of the finest and is based here in North Texas. Started by a husband and wife team in Plano, Noka (a combination of his name and hers) has gotten rave reviews internationally and has appeared in celebrity goody bags for the Golden Globes and the like.
Can't afford the $4/truffle pricetag? Hop on over to NorthPark where Noka has taken over Dr Delphinium's space by the 1st floor Neiman Marcus/Tiffany's entrance. There, you can meet the owners, get a little education on cocoa beans (grown only 20 degrees north or south of the equator) and get a sample of some of the most delectable dark chocolate ever. Not to be inhaled, Noka chocolate is to be savored slowly -- the deep flavor of the small sample will last almost an hour.
