Chocolate show, Michael Coe

It's not a rave review but the NY Times has a story about the chocolate show, from the Field Museum in Chicago, that is touring museums and is now at the American Museum of Natural History in New York.

It's Dark, Seductive and Rich. Who Can Resist?

Michael Coe will give a lecture on the mesoamerican history of chocolate at the museum on June 26 at 2:15pm. For more information, call 212 769 5200.

Coe wrote "The True History of Chocolate" with his wife, Sophie. It's still the best of the many books on the food of the gods. Sophie also wrote "America's First Cuisines" .
