A California company has so far provided the best shot I’ve had in New York.  The location I visited was in the lower level shopping concourse of Rockefeller Plaza.   The shot was the most expensive I’ve had here at $3.60, but is was so significantly better than anything else I didn’t mind.

The shot was brewed on a shiny La Marzocco Strada.  I watched it pour and it looked beautiful from the beginning.  The crema was a nice golden color.  It smelled sweet and tasted of dark chocolate with a sweet finish.

After previously having a mediocre latte at the Illy sponsored Rieu Cafe in the Sony plaza in the morning, this was definitely a great way to start the afternoon.
