We’re hearing that the Tucson location of the Chocolate Fox Chocolatier is expected to open in early February. You can read more about the place over here.
The Tucson location is currently under construction in a small spot right next to the new bar and lounge Playground on the corner of Congress and Fifth.
Speaking of which, if you haven’t been down to Playground you might consider checking it out. It’s fun, very affordable and one of the swankiest new spots in town. Its menu of snack foods is especially clever, and they serve a drink made with Pop Rocks and a bag lunch complete with a Capri Sun juice pouch.

“Chocolate Fox Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) organization which donates one hundred percent of its annual profits from chocolate sales to local animal charities.”
Too bad the vegans can’t eat it.
According to vegetarian times “Approximately 0.5 percent, or 1 million, of those are vegans, who consume no animal products at all. ” This is in the entire US. Not sure what it translates to locally, but probably not enough to keep a store running.
