CAFÉS AND SNACKS
BOUCHON BAKERY
Ten Columbus Circle, Third Floor, Time Warner Center; another location in Rockefeller Center. Subway
A, B, C, D, #1 to 59th St-Columbus Circle. Mon-Sat 8am-9pm, Sun 8am-7pm (café menu daily
11.30am-6pm). MAP
At this Thomas Keller establishment you can get something to go from the counter or sit
at a table and take some time to gaze through the windows onto the corner of leafy Cent-
ral Park, grazing on a ham-and-cheese sandwich, croissant or a decadent pastry.
CAFÉ EDISON
228 W 47th St between Broadway and Eighth Ave, in the Hotel Edison. Subway C, E, #1 to 50th St.
212 840 5000. Mon-Sat 6am-9.30pm, Sun 6am-7.30pm. MAP
This old-style coffeeshop might give a little attitude with the service, but that's just part
of the gruff charm. It manages to be a favourite with theatre-types in any case. And the
tasty matzoh ball soup and brisket sandwiches more than compensate.
