V-day Best Gift: Chocolate Bath in Japan

Posted on February 13, 2007 Under Life

I’ve always known that giving chocolate is the customary and ‘correct’ thing to do for Valentines Day– to the point where there are TV commercials telling me that if I don’t get my girlfriend Russell Stover chocolate for V-day, she will send me swiftly to the dog house (no joke). But this takes the gift of chocolate to a whole new level: at the Hakone Kowakien Yunessun, a spa in Hakone, Japan (which is outside Tokyo at the base of Mt. Fuji), you can give your significant other the gift of a chocolate bath! While it’s not pure Ghiradelli, or Godiva, or Dagoba, or New Tree, or even Hershy’s, it is a mixture of water, cacao, and therapeutic bath powders. And as an added bonus, you will get chocolate syrup squirted all over you by the spa staff– that’s icing on the cake if you ask me! Finally, if you really want to take it over the top, take a look at what other amenity the spa offers.
