What to expect
A bright little corner
Order at the counter and find a seat by the big windows. Cash & card welcome; the dog’s welcome too. Borrow a board game, get some work done, and try the masala chaa in a clay cup. Getting here: we’re at 36th Ave & 29th St — the 36 Av (N/W) station is a couple of blocks away; street parking around the corner.
