BEST PLACE FOR POST-LONG RIDE GUILT-FREE COOKIES
LEVAIN BAKERY
The ladies of the Levain Bakery have been famous in the triathlon community not only because of their great, giant 6-ounce chocolate chip walnut cookies (yes, that’s just shy of weighing half of a pound), but because they also took down the great Bobby Flay in a Throwdown on the Food Network last year. Flay, who put forth a limp, greasy cookie in the competition held at Cadence Cycling and Endurance Center in Tribeca, doesn’t know anything about what a cyclist wants after a long day on the bike battling the elements. The ladies at Levain, both Ironman triathletes, met at a pool and were inspired by their athletic pursuits to quit their jobs and start a bakery. The rest is delicious history. Levainbakery.com.
