Levain Bakery is my favourite!!
I have a plenty of bakeries around my neighbourhood, but I still prefer to take a 10-15 min walk to get to the Levain.
Even though they have many customers, staff is doing a great job and you won't spend too much time awaiting for your order.
At the same time, you always feel treated individually, the service is not only quick but great.
The coffee and bakery they offer are simply fantastic! I would highly recommend the chocolate chip walnut cookie and valrhona chocolate rolls.
I have to mention that the place is small, which is giving it a taste of localness.
Interesting fact - I heard that people from NY send cookies from Levain to their friends in different states where Levain is not present - not every cookie had a chance to travel across the US :D
To conclude: if you have a Levain in your neighbourhood, don't miss the chance to check it out - it is definitely worth trying!

Inwood is an affordable neighborhood at the top of Manhattan. New Yorkers are moving on up. A neighborhood in the upper reaches of Manhattan provinces both the buzzy lures of the city with a quieter, more residential feel. I currently have two great buildings in the area with 1 and 2 bedrooms size units available. All between $1000-$2500 a month. If you more about living in a neighborhood that will save you money on rent, let me know.
Spending the morning in on the Upper West Side today checking out a few apartments for my clients. I have to say this is yet another beautiful part NYC.
#relocation#moving#dog Anyone move to NYC with dog? Pests can be an issue sometimes, when you are looking for an apartment to rent:( Is there anything I should be preparing for? Any advice? I would like to be near Central Park

Hi Elizabeth - Christina makes a great point. Are you open to discovering other dog friendly neighborhoods? The Where Quiz will prioritize these neighborhoods for you if you specify what is important to you (ie. dog parks, outdoor space, etc.)
