The Xocolatl Room, a retail chocolate shop in Uptown that hosted spoken-word poetry events on Friday nights, has apparently closed.
I drove by earlier today hoping to pick up some chocolates. The storefront looked empty. Just called their phone number to confirm, and the line's been disconnected.
Their evening events seemed great in theory -- there was a $10 all-you-can-eat chocolate fountain, live music, and poetry. Wish I would have made it out to one.
