Ghirardelli Square

Waterfront, San Francisco

A Preview

"You can smell it before you see it — chocolate. Warm, sweet, and drifting across half a block. That's Ghirardelli Square, and the man who started it was an Italian chocolatier who came to California for gold and found out he was terrible at it. Domingo Ghirardelli apprenticed as a chocolatier in Genoa, moved to South America, and ended up in Lima, Peru."
