And so I swept in from the cold one snowy afternoon and decided to have something sweet.

ABC Kitchen is located at 35 East 18th Street in the Union Square neighborhood of university students and universal smiles. I certainly felt cheery, embraced by the dreamy white décor, having dessert and coffee. I pulled out my book, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold by John Le Carré, and relished the simple peace of my bun, black coffee and the beauty of a moment.
