So if you worked in the Jersey City financial district (or pretty much anywhere in NYC and probably parts of Newark) pre-Covid you probably experience the fine cuisine provided by the various coffee carts in the mornings. You were a regular if you visited more than once, the guys had your order down. They'd remember you if you were away for a while. Years ago one of them gave me a Christmas card! The cart that used to serve my JC work neighborhood is gone, which makes me sad.

These paragons of fine dining have a variety of cinnamon roll I can't find anywhere else. Bigger than a Dunkin' coffee roll, dense, sometimes a tiny bit undercooked in the very middle. They're the kind of thing you can only eat on a Friday when you have nothing going on because you're going to go into a carb-induced fugue and it will be worth it. I always meant to ask "my" guys who their distributor was but I just didn't, and now I've lost the chance.

I've Googled various combos of "coffee cart distributors" and "food service" etc., but so far nothing. Does anyone know where NJ/NY area vendors get this stuff, and if they sell retail? Seems impractical to get a vendor license just to have my own supply but on the other hand, you gotta do what you gotta do.
