The Swiss are famous for their neutrality. I am not.
In truth, I notice a tendency to prefer the most recent cup I try. This is somehow akin to the «Ado Annie« principle. Akin, adjacent, similar but not the same.
I think I lost the thread there. I mentioned that the Swiss were neutral because my current favorite is the skim milk (to stay) cappucino at Zuri Cafe.
My friend J says “the barber” when I propose a meet ’cause that’s what was at this location.
The cappucino is superior, but the space is a little too little and cute.
Allow me to digress further and school you on why skim. For reasons, I can not explain with any science, skim milk foams more richly. End of lecture.


My coffee hunt has pretty much ended with cups at home or a flatwhite at Starbucks. The latter is the one good cup they serve, and I love the app.
Passing a coffee bar cleverly tricked out as Ground Central well, who among us is strong enough to resist.
Yes. Definitely a robust and balanced cappucino at a price underlining its confidence. 8ozs at about 6 bucks makes this a 50 cent a sip drink.
As I continued on my way up 2nd Avenue, a second outpost of this coffee purveyor appeared just a few blocks north.

In fact, this was a day where duplicates just kept popping up along my route.
Odd but true.
There were restaurants with similar profiles; cleaners clumped on a single block; groups of youngsters similarly disregarding the rules of the road when passing oldsters.
A cortada [aka short] sampling from the Coffee Trail:



The barista said it all: “welcome to the best coffee in New York.
It’s a big city and I love [almost] all her many coffees.
There’s lots on this subject in my other blog sites, too. These are just 3 earlier postings.
