Levain Bakery – New York
6 février 2015 § 3 Commentaires
I heard of Levain Bakery on blogs, magazines and saw it mentioned many times on the internet that I felt that if i did not try their cookies, I would miss something important. They are considered to be the best cookies, and I was not expecting them to be so delicious !
The bakery was founded in 1994 by friends Connie McDonald and Pam Weekes. At the time, Connie was in banking and Pam in Fashion. The two, both competitive swimmers, trained together for the Ironman and—not surprisingly, as their tireless workouts left them feeling starved for great food— they began a passionate dialog about creating the world’s greatest chocolate chip cookie.
I can only thank Connie and Pam for having succeeded to create the perfect cookie. Don’t miss the Chocolate chip walnut !
Address: 167 West 74th St (UWS), 2167 Frederick Douglass Blvd (Harlem) and 354 Montauk Hwy, Wainscott Village (Hamptons)
God, these cookies are the best ! Last year I lived near their shop on 116th street.. So hard to resist ! Your blog is really cool. Well, I love coffee, food and travel so I’m not surprised 😀
