Cafe Sabarsky | New York City, USA
This
Viennese inspired cafe is located in the Upper East Side across from
The Metropolitan Museum of Art and is so perfectly designed and
decorated that it transported these travel bunnies directly out of
the hustle and bustle of NYC to a quieter, warmer European
sanctuary. From the professional (if somewhat cold) service to the
grand piano standing proudly in the dining room, this cafe oozes
class and refinement. We were only stopping in for some much needed
warming caffeine and a piece of the famous Sachertorte but even our
small interlude was enough to leave a lasting impression. The
Sachertorte ($9USD) was velvety smooth in texture and its sugar content
was single handedly enough to keep the other travel bunnie energised
for what turned out to be a long-long afternoon of walking the
streets of the Upper East Side. I ordered a Kaiser Mélange ($6USD)
Viennese speciality coffee which was made with a GENEROUS topping of
whipped cream while the other bunnie stuck with a Sabarsky Heiße
Schokolade (hot chocolate) without the whipped cream (for fear of
developing sudden onset diabetes) ($8USD).
All
in all, a very refined experience that paired perfectly with a day of
culture spent in the surrounding galleries.
Total
Bunnie Dollars Spent: $23USD (excluding tips)
