Posted: 11/6/05 at 6:15pmWhere can I get the best Black and White cookies in Midtown. Also, what are some reasonable restaurants, open late, in Midtown? Any good diners?

Posted: 11/6/05 at 6:20pmYou know, the cookies that are half chocolate and half vanilla. They are kind of large and are equally black and white.

Heh, I googled it just to remember (personally I like the black and white cupcakes better) and this came up:

It's a discussion about black and white cookies in NYC.

Posted: 11/6/05 at 6:25pmThanks for the link. I've never seen those before! Half cookie, half cupcake, with chocolate AND vanilla? I feel like I've missed out on something totally delectable!

Posted: 11/6/05 at 8:47pmTo me, a black and white cookie is a black and white cookie...although Maxie's generally smells pretty good - I'm sure their cookies are just as good as even Starbucks'.

I used to eat those Joey's B&W cookies all the time.
But I love freshly made ones...
A little drop of heaven!

Always check Chef Corner

Check Zabars uptown for Black and White cookies and forget them and try the chocolate crossiants.

NEVER HEARD OF A BLACK-AND-WHITE?!?!?
Quick, the salts! *swoon*
PJ, you are simply the best...practically perfect in every way!
I second Corine...Zabar's. Yummy yum-yum! (I rather think I'd like to marry Corine.)
Suzanne: I never use catalogs. I'd rather go in the store and see all the salespeople groveling and sucking up to you.
Julia: Pardon me, I never knew they were so solicitous at the K-Mart.
