Keeping consistent with my “Make Your Own Damn Coffee” tip, I just picked up a pound of Columbian Supremo French Roast beans at Empire Coffee & Tea.

I also picked up more Brita water filters. Don’t buy … Continue reading

Hell’s Kitchen Gems: Sullivan Street Bakery
Tucked away on West 47th Street between 10th and 11th Avenues, this midtown extension of SoHo-based Sullivan Street Bakery does most of it’s biz baking and supplying exquisite breads for restaurants and such. They do, however, have a humble over-the-counter storefront for walk-in customers, featuring delicious breads, pastries and excellent coffee. There is a great counter at the window where you can enjoy your coffee and bread while reading the New York Times. They also do special orders. I heart … Continue reading

The Daily Morning Coffee Ritual
It’s “Life In A Day” day on YouTube. A historic global experiment to create a user-generated feature film, shot in a single day. Produced by Ridley Scott and directed by Kevin Macdonald, the completed documentary will be shown at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2011. My Submission: This is my daily grind every morning. I make the coffee the old school way, chez Chemex, and do very little in the way of conversation or work until I’ve consumed at … Continue reading
