They want you to lick the cup clean. Similar to licking the plate clean. To show that you like it. However, people reuse those cups. So, it sounds gross. If I lick a cup like that, it would be if I do it myself with a cup I use daily at home. Lmfao.
@@thecookingnerd8384 Waste is Waste Bud. I work in a professional kitchen and a food tenant in a mall. Same story goes. Just because you can doesnt mean you should.
That spilled chocolate is making me nervous as hell, I can just imagine that all over my fingers and later clothes. Because there is no way I won't touch it on accident. Also not being able to properly cup the cup is so annoying 👀
I think Dark Sugars should’ve won because they still make it a but fancy with the shavings but it quickly melts into the drink. It also is good for sitting inside and walking around.
I thought mamasons was better for carrying around since dark sugars is top heavy at first and if ur traveling around with it, because the shreds are so paper thin, the wind will be ur enemy
tbh thats not a good way of deciding which one is the best. Only thing that really matters is taste, at least me to me. If it taste good enough i dont mind a bit of mess or hassle. It doesn't have to be an every day drink akin to a morning coffee. It can be something you have on occasion as a treat, especially considering the sugar content in these drinks, so the practicality of walking around with it isnt a factor.
Dark sugars looks good, I ranked them at #2 but that Said Dal.. looks next level.. when they poured the 3 different chocolates around the cup.. I was like oooohh I have to do that at a holiday party one year. .
Chinchin Labs hands down won it, they have the best tasting chocolate.. even if that mallow was on the way and sticky af. I visited all four. Dark sugars was just okay.. reminds you of homemade choco drink ur favorite granny makes, but there MORE places that serve better hot chocolates than these chosen 4! Food Insider just hyped these up!
The overspilled hot chocolate was done to be "artsy", but I want to drink my hot chocolate...not wear it on my hands. Yes, I know you hold it by the handle. The Chin Chin Lab's hot chocolate was more aesthetically pleasing, reasonably priced plus I LOVE marshmallows in mine 😊💙
Said Dal, crazy expensive. When I lived in Lugano, (Italian speaking city in Switzerland) the hot chocolate was nearly half this price and slightly thicker and darker, it was also served with fruit, banana, grape, kiwi etc) to dip in the hot chocolate. So many places in London are a total rip-off.
@tazzywazzygaming Sometimes, and sometimes the prices are a rip-off. Value for money, and I don't mean cheap, I mean price vs quality. In London, is hard to find.
One thing I absolutely hate about viral drinks like these is the amount of crap they pile on top or stick to the sides. Like it’s such an inconvenience to not be able to properly drink something you probably paid quite a bit for....
C'est quoi ca???? Honestly what a waste no shame paying 8.30 for a cup full of mess do you know where the chocolate come from ? Of corse you do from the poor people of Africa who work so hard to get this luxury to your mouth not to spill it around the cup how sad to see this it broke my heart :(
NGL I'm actually half tempted to break lockdown rules and take a train down to London just to try these drinks... Also to me that one looks the best... Ask for a spoon or slurp the cup I guess lol, which one was your favourite? :)
@@AD-jq7ow I think where they're coming from is that it looks like a waste, not everyone will have the chocolate on the plate, and it could have been put in the cup.
I visited London last month and I can confirm that Dark Sugars' hot chocolate is amazing. I was worried about the shavings at first but they melted quickly into the hot chocolate and just made it richer! Also, I tried their hot chocolate with chili for the first time and needless to say, I miss it a lot!! Can't wait to go back to London again just so I can have that hot chocolate again 🤧

Dark sugars was my go to place when I was in London 🇬🇧 . The workers were so friendly and nice and their hot chocolate is the thickiest and most delicious hot chocolate I ever had.
It looks like sipping/drinking chocolate, which is very creamy, thick and rich. I can’t imagine drinking as much as was served in the video though. Normally sipping chocolate is served in very small amounts. It’s super delicious and doesn’t taste like just melted chocolate.
Looks like an Italian hot chocolate (part custard) that Carluccios (RIP) used to do in small cups as it was incredibly rich. It was awesome esp when you dipped in a croissant or some such. The amount in those huge bowl cups would seriously challenge most individuals....And if I do say so myself, I am pretty adept at shovelling fair quantities of the sweet and rich! Happy Hot Chocolate hunting.
Italian hot chocolate is amazing. It's like a slightly thinner American chocolate pudding, and is challenging to drink in quantities as much as thinner hot cocoa. Also doesn't help that it's rich. But if you serve it with brioche bread to dip in, it makes a great desert.
To be honest apart from Dark Sugars, I found none of the others appetizing or categorized as hot chocolate at all. Said dal looks disgustingly messy, Mamasons cannot be defined as a hot chocolate and I hate the fact that Chin chin has a gigantic scoop of marshmallow ball right on top.
First shop: definately will spill when you put spoon into it Second shop: I'll spill it for you Third shop: we'll coat the sprinkles on the outside of the cup Fourth shop: spills the marshmallow when you poke it with a spoon *WHAT'S UP WITH THE SPILLING??!!!!*
That's the thing with most of this "specialised" shops. They want to give the idea of abundance not thinking about how much product is being thrown away. Sometimes the price doesn't even matter. Just respect the food! R E S P E C T THE FOOD!!! Others are starving

CottoniiClouds microwave it with vanilla coffee creamer, whole milk, a splash of cream and use two packets of hot chocolate instead of one. Top with whipped cream and caramel syrup. Then tell me that it’s crap.
They all look AMAZING but take it from a Londoner, none of them are that great to be honest... They just look insanely good! The price is crazy expensive for a cup of hot chocolate lol
@@ND-oz5lt Wow what's with the hostility? Are you the owner? Also, how can you be sure lol when you yourself haven't even tasted one? I have. By the way, I never said they tasted bad either... I said they don't taste that great for the price they charge, which is subjective because it's my opinion not fact.
There is a gas station, Arco. Where I get gas for my car. And they have good thicc hot chocolate. And it costs around, depending on the size of the cup. So, expensive isn't always best. Sometimes good stuff can cost ya only $1.
Have you seen how expensive rent in London is? Add to that the expensive ingredients, and they are probably charging the lowest price they can while remaining in business

Proper hot choco: "feels too much like a dessert, not a hot choco" Choco with caramelized marhsmallow topping n stuff, fancy af, like a luxury café dessert: "yeah boi, thats real hot choco" Wut???
Dude did you look at the thiccness of that Italian one? It was closer to melted chocolate than to drinkable chocolate. Too heavy, that's what they meant. And people often add marshmallows to their hot chocolate right?
I don't know if it's a cultural thing but as a French, I don't know why they even used the word "luxurious", it has a whole other meaning to me and it's not really the appropriate word to describe a hot chocolate, even a fancy one imo. 😐
The Dark Sugars one looks better than the rest, in fact, I’ve been there before. My brother wanted to try the hot chocolate there on December, 2018. It was really good, the perfect amount of chocolate for me. It’s very warm, not thick at all and not too sweet. 😍

Bruh when I was in elementary School we would always watch the polar Express and when the hot chocolate scene came on the teacher would always give us hot chocolate.
Having tried all these , the hot cocoa from Dark Sugar is the best 🤤 the one from Said is melted chocolate rather than hot cocoa and the service was bad lol
I've only tried the Chin Chin club marshmallow hot chocolate and like he said, it's more of a desert. It is nice but It's also massively sickly and not something you can enjoy over a long time.
@Lamar Elgamal oh yeah thats right, they have the biscottis but probably more for coffee. churros is more like a spanish or french thing but i know what you meant since you get recommended videos like those or like these depending on what you watch first.
3:43 if you do this in an asian household, there are two possible things that could happen: 1. You drink it AS FAST AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE before your MOM sees you or... 2. Your mom sees you.

But also the other person has to get an americano to balance everything up 😂 try it next time if you haven’t already.

Brilliant duo, both so well spoken and articulating their experience so well , bravo
"the purple one" shouldn't even be considered as a hot chocolate.

They all look AMAZING but take it from a Londoner, none of them are that great to be honest... They just look insanely good! The price is crazy expensive for a cup of hot chocolate lol
Well yeah, chocolate ain't cheap
Im sure they taste good wtf are you talking about. Not wanting to spend money on it does not equal not tasting good
@Trid Exactly! You said it perfectly... It's a novelty really
@@ND-oz5lt Wow what's with the hostility? Are you the owner? Also, how can you be sure lol when you yourself haven't even tasted one? I have. By the way, I never said they tasted bad either... I said they don't taste that great for the price they charge, which is subjective because it's my opinion not fact.
There is a gas station, Arco. Where I get gas for my car. And they have good thicc hot chocolate. And it costs around, depending on the size of the cup. So, expensive isn't always best. Sometimes good stuff can cost ya only $1.
Pour the damn thing in the cup, not outside. It doesn't even look nice
That’s the jackson pollock of hot chocolate 😂
@@nguyendaochi2875 It doesn't even look good. Unique? Sure, I guess. Just seems like a complete waste.

Every time I see this video when it pops up in my feed, even after months, I am tempted to watch it again, and want to go to London... just for this 😂
These places are what we call tourist traps in London way to expense!
You can get a very nice hot meal for 8 pounds!
Do you even live in London? Sure you can get a hot meal for £8, but it’s not gonna be good quality as these hot chocolates
Have you seen how expensive rent in London is? Add to that the expensive ingredients, and they are probably charging the lowest price they can while remaining in business

Exactly. £1.90 from Greggs
Agreed.
That’s 3.91 in US dollars and that’s not even counting the tax. Hell nah lmao
Joseph Levy WOW. I LITERALLY said the same thing. Glad I’m not alone. London is overpriced as it is. Hot chocolate is nothing to be over spending on.
London is the best city in the world, great cosmopolitan cultural mix, my favourite city and being Scottish this is not easy to write.
Yall should try the MacDonalds they got a good one.
Just what i was thinking!
😅💀
McDonalds hot chocolate is brown water.
Greggs have a good hot chocolate for £1.90
That's the worst! The a mount of times I've had to go back and tell them to add more hot milk n choc powder is ridiculous lol pathetic for the price!
McDonald's hot chocolate is known as dirty dish water. Greggs is the best (and only £1.90)

why waste hot chocolate on the side of the mug? Are we suppose to lick the mug clean or they have too much of chocolate?
paulson thomas they said to lick clean and purposely make you messy
I would not lick the side of the mug. That's just unhygienic. Ew.... and I would be so worried about getting chocolate all over my hands and clothes......what a mess.

Choco with caramelized marhsmallow topping n stuff, fancy af, like a luxury café dessert: "yeah boi, thats real hot choco"
Wut???
Dude did you look at the thiccness of that Italian one? It was closer to melted chocolate than to drinkable chocolate. Too heavy, that's what they meant. And people often add marshmallows to their hot chocolate right?

If only I had a pound for everytime these people said "luxurious" I could afford all the luxurious hot chocolate all over London!
They even said “luxuriousness”. If only there were a real noun for “luxurious”!
@Adel Eng Sheng Jun Student thatsthejoke.jpg
I don't know if it's a cultural thing but as a French, I don't know why they even used the word "luxurious", it has a whole other meaning to me and it's not really the appropriate word to describe a hot chocolate, even a fancy one imo. 😐
The Dark Sugars one looks better than the rest, in fact, I’ve been there before. My brother wanted to try the hot chocolate there on December, 2018. It was really good, the perfect amount of chocolate for me. It’s very warm, not thick at all and not too sweet. 😍

Having tried all these , the hot cocoa from Dark Sugar is the best 🤤 the one from Said is melted chocolate rather than hot cocoa and the service was bad lol
Real italian hot chocolate is meant to essentially be like melted chocolate with milk, so the thickness was fine
Chin chin looks good though
I've only tried the Chin Chin club marshmallow hot chocolate and like he said, it's more of a desert. It is nice but It's also massively sickly and not something you can enjoy over a long time.
@Lamar Elgamal oh yeah thats right, they have the biscottis but probably more for coffee. churros is more like a spanish or french thing but i know what you meant since you get recommended videos like those or like these depending on what you watch first.

The fact that the milk/chocolate is on my actual cup would piss me off.. especially if it goes on my fingers.

@@Goblinhandler I shouldnt have to be a surgeon to get my fingers out of a handle without getting melted chocolate on my knuckles

@Hit That HateR i think you do not know how to use the word "hypocrite". Also, you drink "hot" beverages "hot" if not maybe you are doing it wrong. Well, maybe, since those two words are subjective, to each his own I guess.
Everything's too messy and overpriced, just for the looks. My favourite is from Carpo at Piccadilly or Knightsbridge. It's thick, rich in flavour, no milk, vegan and only £3
VEGAN THATS NOT GOOD HOT CHOCOLATE
Not everyone is a vegan though. I love milk (animal).
Haya Glamazon when I say vegan I mean without any milk at all. Animal or plant based. It’s pure chocolate
If it's pure chocolate I am going there lmao especially for the price!
That sounds really good! I'm not vegan, I just hate the taste of animal milk. Always have, it's gross.
