I grew up in New England with all my family scattered throughout NYC. One of my best childhood memories is of visiting my grandmother in NYC and getting bagels from the bagel shop a couple blocks down. Being in Chompie's was a blast from the past. The smelss of the food and the memorabilia on the walls reminded me of my childhood visiting family and eating delicious and authentic NY style bagels. I live near by and love walking to Chompie's like I used to do in NYC as a kid.
