Tenpa’s Coffee — Restaurant in New York

Tenz Espresso Bar is a cozy neighborhood gem on First Avenue that takes its coffee seriously.

Pair it with their chocolate muffin, which is dense yet tender with just the right amount of cocoa — a little indulgent but never too heavy.

I wish I could either figure out how to politely only ask for him or that he’d just make them all. Personal shyness aside, this place rocks! I’m pretty sure I’ve reviewed this place at least one other time but it’s just that good for any flat white lover. I may not know how to make a flat white but I sure know how to...
