A collection of my favorite spots discovered along the way...
Philadelphia PA
love the name, the coffee and the barista
seriously the best sandwich I've ever had, delicious options for meat-eaters and vegetarians, and the owners are cool, know they're food and respect their neighbors, recognizing that their white people who've moved into a predominantly brown and black neighborhood
best coffee I had in Philly, beautiful, airy, bright space to work on your computer or just hangout, and they host interesting events
Durham NC
was only in Durham 3 days and I went here twice, I couldn't stay away. amazing sandwiches, soup, veggie and meat. and they have wine
