NYC Restaurant Find: Ippudo
IPPUDO, EAST VILLAGE My first love in New York is Ippudo. I’ve only ever ordered 2 things on their menu and been there at least 20 times. Those 2 things are so satisfying that all of my friends and I are not tempted to even try anything else (see proof in the picture) Best Bit: […]

NYC Cafe Find: Smooch
SMOOCH, FORT GREENE An Australian café in Brooklyn! The coffee is great but make sure the Australian guy (listen for the accent) with the dreadlocks is behind the machine. The food is okay, but nothing you couldn’t prepare for yourself at home, although the cute menu and vibe makes up for all that anyway. http://www.smoochorganic.com/index.html […]

NYC Cafe Find: Stumptown @ The Ace Hotel

NYC Cafe Find: Ports Coffee & Tea Co
(Ports Coffee & Tea Co has been reported CLOSED) When we first moved to NYC, our temporary apartment was in Chelsea and Ports was our beloved daily pit stop. The service is great, no line and quality coffee. We love the cappuccino and macchiato. http://portsnyc.com/ 251 W 23rd St, New York, NY ”Ž (646) 290-6151

NYC Cafe Find: La Colombe Torrefaction
La Colombe NYC – particularly the Noho outpost, happens to be a favourite among a few of my coffee obsessed friends. The light and space really makes the café a nice place to start the day if you don’t mind lining up for a bit. Cappuccino and cortado (with a slice of olive oil cake) are […]
