The Backyard at Saturdays Is My One Way Ticket Out of NYC’s Gnarly Summer Heat | Bon Appétit

"A cool SoHo surf shop that doubles as an urban oasis: order an iced Americano from the barista, slip past racks of breezy tie-dyed camp-collar shirts and tailored linen pants, and step out the back door into a walled backyard patio. The space is planted with ferns, trees, bushes, and flowers that swell into a jungle by August, offering shade and a surprisingly quiet refuge—the tall brick walls mute street noise and rowdy tourists nearby—making it a perfect escape from the sticky, oppressive heat of a New York summer." - ByAlex Delany
