Broadway Au Lait

I work in Morningside Heights and this is my go-to lunch spot. A little out of the way of the Columbia hustle and bustle. Imagine if a bodega deli counter also had a cozy little dining room area. There is a sun-faded photorealistic mural of a fancy garden in it that I adore.

If it's a nice day you could take your lunch to nearby peaceful Sakura Park for a picnic.
