A flat white in New York? Yes indeed. The only cafe from the NY Times coffee list that’s in Midtown turns out to be run by Australians, hence the flat white on the menu. We found it last weekend.

I stuck with the cappuccino, The Mister had the flat white. Both were great, good and strong. We got chatting to the guy when ordering and I think he thought we were experts (no I didn’t have my Supreme shirt on!) as he made us a free cup using some other beans they were thinking of trying! My ginger and molasses cookie was delicious too.

As a side note, if you go into a cafe and the barista is wearing one of those trilby hats, that’s a sure sign the coffee will be great – in our trip around the NY Times coffee list we’ve seen a lot of those hats!
