"Café M is a cute café in the Empire State Building/Koreatown vicinity where you can enjoy a quick bite while sitting at one of the few tables outside, or on one of the two benches inside by the window. I love the seat next to the wall with the display of Le Petit Prince (The Little Prince) by Saint-Exupéry (one of my favorite childhood books). Aside from French pastries, macarons and cupcakes sold individually and by the box, Café M sells jars of jam, ice cream by the pint from Van Leeuwen Artisanal Ice Cream , and coffee from La Colombe Torrefaction . La Colombe is an excellent bold coffee, perfect hot or iced. My perfect breakfast combo whenever I'm in the area is a butter croissant with a large iced coffee, for about $5. There aren't many cafés like this in NYC, so I'll continue to support the establishment. Café M 315 E 31st St New York, NY 10016 Tel: (212) 213-8393 [hidden link]"
