Your correspondent hurried from his dwelling a block away to be there at 109 Montague (between Henry and Hicks) for the announced 8:00 a.m. opening, and found the store already in business at 7:55, with one customer on her way out. According to the friendly staff, 1,000 cupcakes will be given away there this Saturday, August 14. Also, for the next two weeks, you get a free medium coffee–hot or iced–with every purchase.
