Jami chronicles a heated coffee war on NY's East side...

A battle between the NY 10 oz cuppa and the gourmet kind with the fancy lid..

I like 'em both.

Here's how ya do it:

The 50c (usually 65c) 10 ounce NY cuppa coffee you get with a buttered bagel or donut, the 4 buck starbux you get with pastry.

In other words, one is to get you going, the other to relax ya - and you pay accordingly.

Simple.
--------------------
I have often had a simple wish tho...

a NY greek cuppa, but double sized to 20 oz...

But then again, for its purpose - the 10 oz'er is indeed the right size.

EZ to handle on the subway and buses, and just enough juice to get you going.

Yeah, why change it.
