hunting the wily red velvet
I've been on a mission of sorts: seeking out red velvet cake. This is my Google Map of red velvet cake locations: http://preview.tinyurl.com/brooklynredvelvet
Have I missed any? I'm still not 100% sold on the best in the area. I end up liking wither the frosting or the cake, but never both in the same slice/cupcake. Looking at my map, you'll see that I tried Cake Man Raven (the seemingly de facto #1 choice), and recall not being totally won over. I think the cake was a bit light on flavor, if I recall correctly. The pecans on the side were a great touch, though.
So.. anyone have any other places to check out? Opinions on the best? Bueller?

Heavenly Crumbs on Franklin. I've only had it as a cupcake but she makes the best cream cheese icing and only ices it when you order.

What about Joyce's on Vanderbilt?
