This past weekend, Chiz and I decided to treat ourselves to an event that was happening in Melbourne. The second annual Melbourne Caberet Festival was going on and we wanted to be part of it!
We decided to see an amazing performer named Le Gateau Chocolat. It’s hard to describe this diva… but I’m going to try. He is a hefty Nigerian man, who studied law in England and decided instead of practicing law, to dress in sparkly lycra suits and perform operatic and modern classics! Sounds great, right… well he was! This was his Melbourne debut, but he was such a success I’m sure he will be back here again. If he comes to your city, I would highly recommend that you check out his show – it’s well worth it!
I have posted some picts from the evening below, as well as some clips of Le Gateau Chocolat’s performances during the night. He has an amazing voice and a really fun personality on stage! We had so much fun and the evening just flew by very quickly.

Looks like a wild, crazy and fun show. And, he seems to have picked a name that suits him…since it usually means a flourless chocolate cake that is rich and decadent!
we like that – those words definitely describes him!
love him and want to be his new friend. l can be his le gateau vanilla! he is actually quite a good singer!!! when i googled him it said he has performed in the royal, london and copenhagen opera houses. (ps your blog came up first page when googled). in that same article it says his warmth “will see the whole world addicted to chocolate,” amen to that sista!
