"Va Bene is the only caf\u00E9 I know that manages to screw up Illy. Not good.\nHere's a list of food items I tried (but will never touch again):\n- A horribly salty and greasy prosciutto & cheese sandwich with pesto on a tasteless bun\n- Blueberry muffin on steroids \n- Heavy, faux-\u00E9clairs that in no way resemble the delicious, cream-filled choux-pastry delights I love\n\nVa Bene is pricier than Dean & Deluca in my building in Manhattan while it consistently disappoints. Definitely not \"va bene\"."^^ . "0"^^ . "0"^^ . . "2"^^ . . "0"^^ . "2013-06-21T00:00:00"^^ . .
