If this is the same one as here then this place will be an awesome addition to Forest Hills.

A Peek Inside the New Starbucks
The new Starbucks on the north side of Queens Blvd., next to the CVS, is now open. It looks to be quite a bit larger than the one it replaces which was near the former Duane Reade.

Pink Forest Opens
Austin Street got its second coffee place Friday with the opening of Pink Forest. I dropped in today and found it to be a great addition to the neighborhood. It's a charming new coffee spot, with an Asian flair, representing the increasing influence of this demographic group on our neighborhood. I figured what better time to have my very first JianBing, the Chinese breakfast sandwich I have been hearing so much about? And I was not disappointed. It was downright excellent and I can't wait to have my next one at our new coffee and tea spot. And eatery, by the way. The place also serves bagels, which looked mighty fine as well.
As for the coffee, I also had an iced coffee and thought it was really good.
What's really interesting about Pink Forest is their choice of location. Those of you who have been loyal readers of this blog over the years might remember those early years when I begged for someone to open a nice indie coffee shop, like they had in basically every other NYC neighborhood. Well, first came Red Pipe, and now, pretty much right across the street comes Pink Forest. I hope both flourish. Red Pipe gets mighty crowded at times, and now we have an interesting new complement to it right nearby.

Putting the Artisanal in Coffee
So, I guess out with the tea, in with the art. Here's version 2 of the new Austin coffee spot's sign. An interesting change. The term "art" is quite broad, and could mean anything artistic I suppose. Thanks again to Joe for the pic, and for keeping an eye on the ever-changing Pink Forest coffee shop!

New Tea & Coffee Spot Opening on Austin St.
This is in the spot that used to be the candy store, and more recently was a jewelry place. Thanks to Joe for the photo!
