"I came across a 300-square-foot cafe in Chelsea at 128 Seventh Ave., between 17th and 18th streets called the Commons, and it feels like a true family affair: it's run by brothers Sam and Brett Nidel and their friend Matthew Mogel, with Brett’s wife handling graphic design, a cousin who designed the space, their father providing legal expertise, and their mother baking the cakes and cookies." - Stefanie Tuder
