Almondine Bakery is considered to have the best baguette in NYC and best croissants by NY Mag and other food publications (we agree with all of them). Today, in a NY Times review, Almondine’s macaroons (those airy almond meringue cookies pressed around a creamy filling) are considered one of the best in NYC. If you haven’t tried the best bakery in NYC’s macaroons, we suggest you go to Almondine now and get a box of them.

A sign at the new cafe called Punto Bianco (means white spot in Italian) on 14 Jay Street (at John Street) has gone up. The coming soon sign says there will be paninis, salads, pastries, and an espresso bar. No word yet on opening day, but looks like the build out of the cafe is coming along.
