Free Hot Chocolate!
I'm never in this area, but if you happen to be on a cold day...Tired of hot chocolate that can set you back $5 a cup? Try the lobby of the Regency Hotel, 61st Street and Park Avenue, where the hot chocolate is free to anyone, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., on days when the temperature dips below freezing. Back near the elevators, the hotel has set up a stand for self-service hot chocolate, a steaming winter warmer that the chef, John Iachetti, makes just rich enough by melting his chocolate in half-and-half. Minimarshmallows, chocolate swizzles and peppermint sticks are available as garnishes. In summer, when it's above 80 degrees, there will be fresh lemonade for all.
I copied the above text last year from the NYTimes, but here's another mention of it from Frommers. If anyone can vouch for its existence and most importantly, its deliciousness, let me know!
