A fresh baked warm buttery croissant and a spiced hot chocolate from Parva Bakery, a lovely hidden gem spot in NYC located in Queens (Jackson Heights).

The hugs and cookies vibes are struggling 🥺, but I am trying my best at least 🥹.

Treating myself to a spiced hot chocolate ☕ and a warm buttery croissant 🥐 from a beloved neighborhood bakery in the World's Borough to start the day. 😋

#BuddiesCoffee, in #Williamsburg, #Brooklyn in #NYC. ❤️☕❤️
Got my pre-order for the cold brew on Friday (takes 24hrs to make, so you have to order in advance).
Figure since I am going to be there, I might as well grab a drink too.
The coquito latte is one of their best.

Enjoyed my Friday afternoon tea time with a favorite holiday film with tasty eats. 😋
I love these rice box lunches that are filled with a mix of all the savory deliciousness. 🥰
