having started a new work gig today and losing some of my freelance freedom, i already am jonesing for my "eli special banana mocha coffee drink." i miss it terribly, the taste, foamed milk design, bittersweet aroma, the warmth of the cup, ah! see one of eli's masterful creations above...well i just might have to get this book to cheer myself up...
from the joe newsletter: CAFE LIFE NEW YORK
There have been several books released this fall in which Joe has been mentioned, as well as a number of great books written by Joe regulars. Last week, a very special book came out and anyone who loves coffee bars in New York will want to check it out: Sandy Miller has published Cafe Life New York, a comprehensive guide to the many cafes of the Big Apple. Organized by neighborhood, the book includes a full chapter (with beautiful color photos) about Joe, as well as many other stellar Gotham coffee bars: Gimme, Ninth Street Espresso, Grumpy, and Gorilla, just to name a few. We'll be selling the book at our shops, or you can also purchase it through the publisher: http://www.interlinkbooks.com/.
and, joe goes green!!!!!! hurrah!
We've been working hard in recent months to make sure that we are running as environmentally friendly a business as we can. We took a great step last month with our new composting program--that's right, now instead of throwing away coffee grounds, fruit rinds, boxes, and old pastries, hundreds of pounds are collected from us every night by a special company that converts the compost into fertilizer. We've started the program at Waverly and will add the other shops on January 1st.
