And the Winner for Two Tickets to the L.A Chocolate Salon is.....

By order of true randomness , I announce the winner of two free tickets to this years L.A Luxury Chocolate Salon to be...


(really fast drum roll please)

...Hanh Nguyen!

"My Glutster moment - I had a bag full of fancy, spiced truffles melt into a soup of yummy chocolate in its original bag, so I poured it into a tupperware box and then used that as a dip for granny smith apples. I won't say how many apples I went through."

A full bag of truffles eyy?

Good start, but the Chocolate Salon will be like eating 40 full bags of truffles, enjoy!


Congratulations!

I will submit your name and email to the people over at Taste TV and two tickets will be waiting for you at will call.

As for the rest of you?

Thanks for trying your luck, this was the first time I do something like this but it will not be my last.

And don't forget...it's only $20 presale for over 40 Artisan Chocolatiers!

That is really nothing compared to other food events I've covered (some up to $300-$500? not kidding)


hope to see you guys there!

Two Free Tickets to the L.A Chocolate Salon, Who's Down? (Giveaway!)

So after covering the Los Angeles Chocolate Salon since its L.A premiere in 2007 , I've made it up to the ranks of the "Salon Awards Tasting Panel" for this years event.

Why is this significant to you guys? I'm the one going to be gorging, I mean diligently "tasting" every single chocolate they have available, right?

...Well, now you can too!

Thanks to kind folks over at Taste T.V. I'm giving away TWO--count them, TWO--promotional tickets to this year's Chocolate
LOS ANGELES LUXURY CHOCOLATE SALON on October 11th, 2009.

Now for the catch...

Just be kind and leave a comment!

Stating:

A) Your full name

B) Your email (chose to be private, just email me: theglutster@gmail.com)

&

C) A Glutster moment in your life...what is the most chocolate you've ever eaten in one sitting?

Be it all the chocolate from your trick or treat bag when you were younger, five times over Chocolate soft serve at a buffet somewhere or even just a complete bar of anything...be honest!

I will select a random winner by midnight on Thursday, October 1st.

...All of a sudden I feel like Willy Wonka with the last golden tickets or something.

Good Luck!
