On Sixth Avenue and the Starbucks Challenge

Cuppa joe to go, nyc
Photo by myself on Sixth Avenue, in Midtown.

The drug of choice here in New York is without a doubt, coffee.

Whether with a ton of milk, a ton of sugar, or black, we *loves* our caffeine. Loves, loves, loves. What other beverage gets our edge on, makes us more productive and talk quickly? Delis on every street corner serve coffee and iced coffee (in the summer), and of course there are Starbucks locations everywhere.

Above, two women sported hot coffees and one had an iced coffee, last week. Already. I know, it's only March, but it was obscenely sunny last week, the perfect weather for an iced cuppa joe to go.

Thanks to my fiance Mark for finding a very funny video on the matter of coffee. Below, a comedian named Mark Malkoff visited all 171 Starbucks locations in one, very long day.

This video was done way back in 2007, when there were only 171 Starbucks locations in Manhattan. At this writing, there are 255. Enjoy!

How fun! My fave Starbucks in NYC is the one on 43rd and 9th - great people watching and friendly baristas. I miss them, way down here in ATL. And Banjo, you make a good point!
