Today the Times has a list of the top 30 places to get coffee in the city, praising New York for finally shedding its shackles as a "second-string city when it came to coffee." With places like Abraço and Café Grumpy, we can stop relying on fancy pants San Francisco companies to roast our beans and do it ourselves. Of course, this kind of dedication comes with a price, with some shops refusing to serve espresso in anything but a warm ceramic cup, or saying goodbye to cappuccino because "milk would overpower the subtle flavors of the coffee." Of course, all this hype means a backlash must be brewing, and we predict the Times will soon be running a trend piece about clean-cut scenesters swearing by their Folgers crystals.

Yeah, your coffee suddenly became good, because you got some Blue Bottle Coffee from SF in Brooklyn...
sounds like a typical second city inferiority complex except san fran is like tenth city at best.... and yes you are below boston
i gotta say ouch to SF. But i concur.
San Francisco is #1 at homeless people though
The great irony being that most of that list consists of imports. (Abraço's Jamie McCormick is an SF import even.)
Just because you call your casino "New York New York" and plant it in Vegas doesn't make it New York.
Yeah - also, La Colombe Torrefaction is from Philly

I know! I think it is sad that both Mud and Porto Rico didn't get mentioned in the article. They roast their own beans and are local.
I am still waiting for German coffee to come to NY. They would make a mint. Try Jacobs
The best NY coffee comes out of Brooklyn: Gorilla. Yummy!
