Sook Pastry, Ridgewood

What Makes It "Strong": When Sook and her husband Izzy looked for the most luxurious coffee to complement the decadent French pastries at their Ridgewood cafe, they stopped at Illy.

"When there are variations in the coffee beans, it's not as good a flavor. Illy makes sure there are no variations in the size of the beans, how they’re roasted, so all the little beans are exactly equal,” said Sook.

The Illy name is synonymous with excellence, Sook said, and new baristas are specially trained so the Illy brand name is maintained.
