Driftaway Coffee 

Driftaway is a coffee subscription service that sends you delicious (and super fresh) beans to brew at home, all based on your personal tastes. Anu and Suyog even roast the beans themselves! It's just about the perfect gift. 

Viva La Pizza!: The Art of the Pizza Box by Scott Wiener 

Scott's taught a couple pizza history classes for us, and his book on the amazing world of pizza take out boxes is the perfect gift - fun and loaded with facts. 

And if you're shopping for a New York-based pizza lover, check out Scott's Pizza Tours, offering walking and bus tours of the city's best slices. 

The Chinese Takeout Cookbook by Diana Kuan

Diana teaches all sorts of Asian cooking classes for us and all over NYC, and her first cookbook features recipes on everything from moo shu pork to black sesame ice cream. It's really, really good. 

Achaars from Brooklyn Delhi 

Chitra Agrawal recently launched her first condiment, an awesome tomato achaar that can go on just about anything (the perfect Sriracha replacement?!). You can find them all around Brooklyn and the city, as well as online. 

Hay Rosie Ice Cream

Our pal Stef Ferrari opened Hay Rosie in Carroll Gardens this past spring; if you're in NYC and haven't been to the tasting room, do yourself a favor and get over there as soon as possible. Once you fall in love with the ice cream, order a starter pack of some of the most popular flavors online and have it shipped to all your favorite people. 

Chutneys & More from the DP Chutney Collective

Drake's taught half of Brooklyn how to pickle and preserve at home, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try his ridiculously good chutneys. Check here for a list of local stores that carry them.
