Max Brenner

Editorial Review

The bald man rocks. Does pretty much everything with chocolate except inject it directly into your eyeballs. (Although there is a Huge Chocolate Syringe, for oral use.) Overhead pipes ostensibly keep the chocolate goodness flowing. Menu diverse enough for treating the kiddies to a milky way shake, or getting drunk off your ass via a chocolate truffle martini. Omelettes for breakfast, sammies and salads for lunch, penne or roast chicken for dinner. Big space bustles, but don't ask for Mr. Max, he's just a composite. A composite with a globe-spanning chocolate empire!
