After hanging out with my friend Rachel this afternoon on the gilded area of Fifth Avenue in Midtown, I came home. On my way to McDonalds to get coffee (don't mock: the coffee there is great, at least at this location), I noticed that a cafe that was being built appeared to be open. People were inside mingling and employees stationed behind the counter. I walked in and something seemed off. I must have looked very confused. A woman behind the counter said nicely to me, "Hi. We're having a private party." Apparently friends and family were celebrating the soon-to-open cafe and the three co-owners. She, one of the owners, offered me a glass of wine, I nibbled on some of the food, and was thoroughly impressed with the cafe. Also, she pointed out that they also had Clover coffee machine, a $11,000 coffee maker, that the New York Times recently featured. Anyway, if you live in Park Slope, check out 3B (I think that's how it's spelled) in a week or two on 4th Avenue and Carroll Street.
