A small patisserie and boulangerie that brings a bit of Left Bank love to Morningside Heights. Folks line up in droves for the baked good and sweet treats of Judith Norell, who decided to hang up her harpsichord and flee to baking school in Paris before opening Silver Moon.
Some say her challah is New York's best (try the challah croissant) but her brioche, baguettes and muffins are famed far and wide as well (go for the Morning Glory muffin, made with apples, carrots, raisins, coconut, sunflower seeds and spices, among other tidbits). Sidewalk seating in suitable weather makes for a lazy morning.
