Morning Snacking
My guy is a coffee connoisseur and won’t go anywhere that doesn’t have excellent java. I, on the other hand, prioritize the availability of good morning noshes in my choice of place.
It has been a problem for us to find a place that pleases both of us, as many coffee houses have mediocre snacks—as was documented by Sara Dickerman here, here, and here.
I think these articles maligning bad pastries are starting to have a positive effect. I just returned from Caffe Vita, where the food choices used to be merely so-so, where I drank some delicious coffee and snacked on some very tasty banana bread. Cheers to that!
gypsy java in wallingford [on ... 34th and stone way? i think?] has The Best Scones On The Planet. gigantic and moist and full of huge marionberries. probably not on the way for anyone up yonder, but if you happen to find yourself there, stop by. its worth it.
