Sep 24, 2019 4 years ago

We have exciting things coming to The Porch at 30th Street Station this October that you won't want to miss, including a new rotation of food trucks, our finished Pavilion at The Porch, and a brand new vendor located in the turquoise cube three days each week!  

La Chocolatera Coming to The Porch! 

Starting Monday, October 7th, we'll be welcoming La Chocolatera to The Porch for vending from the turquoise cube on the western edge where the Pub was previously located. La Chocolatera's hours will be Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays from 7:30 AM to 2:30 PM. La Chocolatera will vend bean-to-cup, organic, and sustainably sourced hot chocolate, as well as their own huge marshmallows, freshly roasted coffee from High Point Roasters, baked goods from Four Worlds Bakery, and deviled eggs. 

La Chocolatera imports their cacao from small, independent growers predominantly in Central and South America and turn it into rich, dark chocolate at their facilities in Mt. Airy. They'll be offering the following flavors:

  • “Original” is made with deep and rich 65% dark chocolate
  • “Dulcé” is a bit sweeter (like a milk chocolate) but still not overly sweet
  • “Hint-o-Mint” has a subtle infusion of organic peppermint oil
  •  “Mayan Chili Spice” evokes an ancient elixir, made with Ancho chilis, cinnamon, and vanilla beans
