| | | | | | Levain Bakery 167 West 74th Street (Between Amsterdam and Columbus Avenues) (212) 874-6080 I don’t say it often. In fact, I’ve only said it one other time on this blog.

I was initially there to buy 4 chocolate chip walnut cookies for a museum outing with my compadres. Levain's cookies were listed as one o...
