As spring draws nearer, and the weather allows for some much-needed outdoor recess, I’ve started making a list of things that I can’t wait to do. Among the top orders of business: playing beach volleyball, laying out in Central Park’s Sheep Meadow, and, with some help from Peanut Butter & Co., having a “peanut butter picnic” in Washington Square Park.

Also known as "Delicious"

With sandwiches ranging from The Fluffernutter® (freshly ground peanut butter and gobs of Marshmallow Fluff®) to The Elvis (peanut butter, bananas, honey, and bacon), Peanut Butter & Co. has become a Greenwich Village hotspot for those of us who love a good twist on the classic P.B. & J.

The Elvis will make you shake, rattle, & roll!

My favorite sandwich also doubles as dessert: Dark Chocolate Dreams™, featuring chocolate, peanut butter, cherry jam, and shredded coconut. (Have I mentioned yet that I really like this place?)

Peanut Butter & Co. is located at 240 Sullivan St., just one block south of Washington Square Park. To learn more, or to purchase one of their of spreads, visit their website.
