I love New York style breakfast places. Neighborhood cafés where you start the day with a cappuccino and a smoothie. That’s why I instantly fell in love with La Finca, the new coffee shop next to Palma’s avenidas. It’s got that same relaxed atmosphere, healthy snacks and great coffees made by a charming barista.

When I discovered Simple Food Bar in Santa Catalina it instantly reminded me of my last visit to Williamsburg. My days there started with a bagel and a smoothie at The Bean, our neighbourhood coffee shop. A fab place to grab a decent…

Although we cannot remember much from our first years of life there are some smells and tastes that instantly trigger early childhood memories. A hot chocolate always makes me feel like a little girl again, warm and loved. There is one place in…

It’s no secret that La Molienda is one of my favorite coffee shops in town. Today, however, there were no cappuccinos or flat whites but people came for a beer. Majo, Miguel and Toni were throwing a little street party to celebrate the second…
