If you know me, you know how obsessed with Bon Appétit I am. The podcast, the magazine, the Instagram. It's all good. Since their HQ is in NYC, they post about a lot of delicious hidden gems in the city. Wifey BK was one of those gems, and luckily I have some friends who are equally concerned about the aesthetics of their coffee shop who came with me to check it out.
It's part coffee shop, part art gallery, and part impeccable floral display, all beautiful. Owned by two artists, Simone Shubuck and Janine Foeller, it's housed in a minimalist chic industrial sort of building in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn. I've only lived here a couple of months and have already taken many friends here. It's just one of those really good vibe, beautiful environment type of places. Very cool, but everyone is very kind.
Every detail seems attended to, from the tree stump seating, to the artfully scrawled menus, and colorful cheer. Every corner is more photogenic than the last.
I adore all the handmade china and the feeling that you're inside an artist's studio. The whole place is expressive, through the art, the gorgeous florals, and the ever-changing menu. If you find yourself in Park Slope anytime soon (this place is only temporary...), check it out for yourself.
