Whynot Coffee & Wine

Written by , Posted in FOOD, LIFESTYLE, TRAVEL

Acho que todo mundo que mora em NY tem um coffee shop preferido, um lugarzinho em seu bairro que goste de ir pra comprar seu café, sentar para ler um livro ou jornal, fazer trabalhos no computador, encontrar os amigos para bater um papo no fim de semana… Enfim, aquele cantinho especial que passa a ser uma extensão da nossa casa. O meu, desde que me mudei para o West Village tem sido o Why Not Coffe and Wine na Christopher Street. Acho esse lugar um charme! Além da decoração em si e do sofá aconchegante no fundo, eles servem doces e bebidas quentes em pratos e canecas fofos e a musica é tocada a partir de discos de vinil. A intensão é de que a atmosfera de uma sala de visitas seja sentida pelo cliente. Ah, e o Whynot tem um grande diferencial também; eles servem vinho a partir da 5 da tarde e quando começa a escurecer, diminuem as luzes um pouquinho, fazendo do lugar ainda mais aconchegante e, por que não, romântico. 

I think every newyorker has their favorite coffee shop, a favorite spot in their neighborhood where they like to go to buy their coffee, sit down to read a book or newspaper, work with their computer, catch up with friends… Anyway, that special place that usually becomes an extension of our own apartments. Whynot Coffee & Wine on Christopher Street became this place for me after I moved to the West Village this last summer. I just love how charming this place is! They have a very nice interior, with a cozy couch in the back, drinks and pastries being served in cute plates and cups, and music coming from a real vinyl record player; all to reflect the ambience of someone’s living room.  Oh, and they also have a wine list that you can start choosing from everyday after 5pm, when they also dim the lights a little bit to create a more cozy environment and, why not, a more romantic one as well?
