George very pleasant person. President and CEO of G&E Chocolate adventure is extremely knowledgeable of the field and foods he promotes. He understands all the logistics involved to grow the cocoa tree. Everything is natural from the cocoa butter and oils to the fresh drink of chocolate drink. I recommend every one that visit Puerto Limon to visit the store. I enjoyed the dried cocoa with ginger caramel it's delicious. This delicatessen is a must so enjoy while you can.

A great place to learn all about how chocolate is made. The staff are so very nice and helpful. Upstairs also has a community space which has some interesting art in it. The chocolate products are made in-house and are delicious.

Not a restaurant but we tried the cacao bean samples of each process- it’s an educational event, after the educational sightseeing tour along the river seeing monkeys, etcetera. Because of the duration, they provided us with fresh fruits to eat and cacao products processed for purchase. It was an exciting few hours in the tropics. Hat, shades, sunscreen, bug repellent and comfortable shoes are a must.

Great store for buying cocoa and cocoa products! Very kind staff, they let you try everything without any pressure to buy whatsoever. You can explore the back of the store where they roast the cocoa and where they pack the products.

A very informative and enjoyable hour learning and tasting various types of cocoa and tropical fruits. George was very passionate about how the enterprise is about adding value to cocoa- he is certainly succeeding! Highly recommend a visit. This visit was part of the shore excursion with a cruise.

George was the best and his help was awesome too. He caught us how to make patty and pattina. I was excited to cook beside him. What a honor. He also made a nice rice and beans mixture and chicken. Was so good I love this part of the Limon your and rice and beans tour...
