Exploring the streets of New York City is one of my favorite things to do. Looking for new discoveries or going to recommended ones, I never stop. This is not a traditional food blog. I don't focus on restaurant reviews, or cooking tips; but I find specific items that you absolutely must try. Whether it be a cranberry donut or the best cappuccino. The focus isn't on the usual, but the cheap, the best, and the hidden.
I am always looking for new places to go! Send me a tweet, or leave me a tip of your favorite place or find in the comments!

Aroma Espresso Bar is the kind of place that can easily be passed off as “just another cafe”. I know, because I did just that for months. What a mistake. Not only is this one of my go to places for items such as sandwiches, salads, and coffees; but it is home to unquestionably one of the best hot chocolates. Perfectly rich, creamy, and just the right amount of sweetness is only the first thing you will notice. It is topped with what they call whipped cream, but remains a holy like mystery to my friends and I. By far, the best “whipped cream” you will ever have. Take the spoon and dig down to the bottom, you will find a mass of melted chocolate that only adds to the experience. Small $3.50, large $4.10.
One of the best, discovered.
