A cup of hot chocolate can perhaps make anyone go weak in the knee. And if you are foodie, you are bound to get hooked on the delicious and creamy beverage.

The ‘Kedarnath’ actor is currently in London with her mother Amrita Singh, and isn’t missing out on even a single opportunity to gorge on delicious grub while being there. We recently told you about her huge 12-course Korean meal that she enjoyed, right? From fried chicken, dimsums and tempura fries to kimchi rice, pickled cucumber and much more, Sara had it all.

Now, Sara is back with her latest indulgence, as she shared a photo on Instagram Stories, and it was enough to make us slurp. The actor enjoyed a cup of what looked like hot chocolate, and we could also spot a jug filled with the same hot beverage alongside. And the location was a popular French-style bakery called Laduree.

And guess what, the bakery also made its India debut in 2021, with its first store in Delhi’s iconic Khan Market.
Coming back to Sara’s stint at the bakery, she shared a drool-worthy image of her cup of hot chocolate and added a sticker that read, “So cozy”, and we could totally relate to her. Take a look:
