In a city characterised by its never-ending spread of ambitious coffee sellers, it seemed only a matter of time before more decadent European indulgences took root. At Nuk, the new ice cream and coffee cafe on Street 154, that indulgence is the most Italian of culinary flourishes: the affogato ($3.80), one scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream on a bed of brownie crumble, drowned in a shot of espresso. It’s a delightful trio, a cold, crunchy sugar fix chased with a high-grade dose of hot java. Sure, there are other sweets on the menu, and fancy teas and creamy smoothies, but none are as decadent as the Italian trifecta. Nor as delicious. Nuk Cafe, #16 Street 154.
