Oklahoma City - Historic Automobile Alley cordially invites you
to celebrate Chocolate Decadence 2010, one of Oklahoma City's most anticipated events
and Valentine traditions. Chocolate Decadence 2010 will be held Thursday, February
4th from 5:30 - 8:00 p.m., again at 825 N. Broadway. Held in one of the coolest
venues this City has to offer, the Hudson-Essex Loft Office exudes hip, urban-chic
in Historic Automobile Alley. The party showcases decadent chocolate treats from
premier local restaurants and caterers while featuring smooth jazz, wine and champagne,
gourmet coffees and the ever popular Valentine auction. Chocolate Decadence has
enjoyed sold out crowds for the past three years and the same is expected this year.
Purchase your tickets early so as not to miss the most decadent event of the year!
Hosted by Automobile Alley, all proceeds from this year's party will once again
be given back to the neighborhood fondly known as the "front door to downtown."
In previous years, proceeds from Chocolate Decadence have helped fund projects such
as the realignment of the 6th Street "Centennial Gateway," installation of vintage-style
neon signs and façade enhancements, as well as the purchase of fabulous street furniture
that set the standard for the rest of Downtown.
"Each year Chocolate Decadence gets bigger and more exciting thanks to the imaginative
chocolate creations provided by our amazing restaurants. Our guests have come to
expect a wonderfully unique evening which is why this event sells out earlier and
earlier each year," said Francy Palmer of RCB Bank of Nichols Hills, co-chair of
the event.
This year's event will feature chocolate delights by Bin 73, Bricktown Brewery,
Brown's Bakery, Café Evoke providing fabulous gourmet coffees, Café Nova, CocoFlow,
42nd Street Candy Company, Iguana Mexican Grill - providing a signature chocolate
libation exclusive to Chocolate Decadence guests, La Luna Mexican Café, Mickey Mantle's
Steakhouse, Nancy's 57th Street Lighthouse, Nonna's Euro-American Ristorante & Bar,
105 Degrees, Paseo Grill, Red Primesteak, The Melting Pot, Sara Sara Cupcakes, and

The Chocolate Decadence auction, which is a key part of the evening, features gifts
that celebrate this romantic season. One very lucky winner will walk away with a
decadent bauble courtesy of Samuel Gordon Jewelers, the exclusive Chocolate Decadence
jewelry sponsor. With thanks to Geno's Furs, you'll be able to stay warm through
the end of winter with one of their exquisite offerings. Also on hand will be fabulous
