Ah, Zoka, where every cup of coffee receives 10 "special" minutes of barista attention. Tom, if you're going early, I'll meet you there at 9:00, which should put us in good stead to have coffee in hand by 11:00. I'll be there if I can get out of the neighborhood - here's hoping for a warm-up. --

Zoka has great pastries and is right off the Burke-Gilman north of U-Village. Never been to Herkimers, but it sounds nice. Can't recall the last time I was at Allegro, but know folks that swear by it. Watch out, next I'll suggest Last Exit on Brooklyn;) I'm easy. Let's decide on a time and
