Indulge at the Chocolate Chile Cabana, where you can sample goodies, meet some of today's most exciting, red-hot chocolatiers, and cast your vote at the Brooklyn Chile Peppers 'n' Chocolate Takedown. Feel the heat as spicy food specialists and chefs offer sizzling samples, cooking demonstrations, and tasty tips. Don't miss your chance to savor the fiery flavor…Brooklyn style.
