From time to time after my walks in Central Park, I treat myself to a yummy oatmeal cookie at Alice’s Tea Cup (102 West 73rd St., New York, NY 10023). It is like being in your own secret garden in The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett.

Alice’s Tea Cup is a pretty little place with teas, sandwiches, and scones. It is a mixture of families from the neighborhood; tourists’ stopping by in between shopping on Columbus Avenue, and passersby discovering something new.
