  4. I just had to emerge from lurkdom to put in a plug for Levain Bakery, home of the best cookies in the city--delicious, buttery, heart-attack inducing. on W. 74th just off Amsterdam Ave, tucked away slightly below ground level.

  8. Well Amanda pretty much covered it, but somehow she missed Amy's Breads. And as discussed, you can go Billy's or Magnolia's on cupcakes, they are the same. I will tell you that Billy is a really nice guy, and the owner of magnolia's is nuts. But the cupcakes are the same. ;)

  11. I second Sarabeth's for scones... and their tomato soup (not a baked good but any baked good tastes heavenly when dipped in it).

  13. Baked goods in NYC are enough to lure me out of lurkdom as well, and I second Emily's suggestion of cookies from Levain Bakery. They are heavenly. Also wondrous are the cookies and other baked goods at Momofuku Milk Bar on 13th between 2nd and 3rd. And while you're there, try the pork buns. Amazing!

  14. cupcakes: kyotofu, in hell's kitchen (more interesting than your standard, and they've been crowned nyc's best a few times; they also have amazing soymilk soft serve)
    bagels: murray's, in chelsea
    doughnuts: doughnut plant, on the lower east side
    bread: amy's bread
    cookies, crack pie, cereal milk: momofuku milk bar, in the east village (innovative and marvelous)
    pie: the little pie company, hell's kitchen and grand central
    hot chocolate, homemade marshmallows: city bakery, near union square

  16. Best hot chocolate and lemon blueberry muffins, and a cupcake called "Brooklyn Blackout" that is to die for: Two Little Red Hens, 2nd Avenue, between 85th and 86th. Closer to 86th, right off the corner.

  18. this may be too late (finally catching up on my overwhelmed Reader), but if you're still looking: go to bubby's pies in tribeca — and sneak downstairs to their old school photobooth. highly recommend their michigan sour cherry pie.

  20. I think I already commented about City Bakery elsewhere but I love it. For cupcakes I discovered this place in the East Village:
