Registrar brain means I rate everything on condition, provenance, and whether it survives shipping — so naturally I started doing it to cappuccinos. This is the rotation: Gowanus staples I hit between gallery walkthroughs, plus a few spots worth the subway detour (provenance unverified, taste undeniable). No chains, no 'artisanal' nonsense that's just beige walls and a $7 oat flat white — unless the oat flat white earns it.
