Without ever crossing the border, Texans can visit China, Athens and Egypt. We don’t need a passport to make a stop-off in Paris or London. Quirky names for our small towns is just one more thing that gives us pride in the great state of Texas.
Transport yourself to quaint Calvert for a taste of the sweet life at COCOAMODA, an uber-upscale chocolate boutique. The sugar buzz is that there’s no better chocolate in all of Lone Star. Take a delicious day trip and have lunch in the Parisian-style cafe before ordering your favorite truffles and ganaches. Once you pass through downtown and make it home, you’ll wish you’d stocked up on more goodies. Good thing you can order online.
This kind of gourmet decadence is what they would call Paradise, Texas – if the name wasn’t already taken.
