| - If this place ever shuts down, you will find me curled up in the fetal position rocking myself outside their locked doors. I love this place more and more each time I go. Now, mind you, this place will never shut down because each time I've been there it is PACKED. It doesn't matter when you go, even today at 10am on a Thursday, there were easily twenty people inside the tiny shop. Apparently none of these people have real jobs. Whatever, I don't care about them. I care about my fabulous bagel-liciousness. Yes. I made that word up. I think Webster should pay me royalties, in the form of hot bagels.
This place makes all their bagels from scratch each morning. Get there at the right time and you can have one hot out of the oven. Mmm. It is heaven in a paper bag. The bagels are hand rolled, then boiled and baked. The end result is a crispy exterior and soft, chewy inside.
I suggest the breakfast sandwich. They will whip up the best bagel sandwich with your choice of breakfast meat, cheese and egg in no time. (Seriously, I have no idea how they cook it so fast, but I know they don't cook them ahead of time, because the cook top is out in the open for everyone to see.)
Once, my husband and I were in a hurry to get to the airport. It was some ungodly hour in the morning, and we were starving. I couldn't bring myself to do the drivethru at the McDonald's across the street. Just couldn't do it when I knew my bagel-liciousness was just a few hundred feet away. So we called them on our way and asked if they could make the sandwiches ahead of time. They were more than happy to. When we ran in, our bagel sandwiches were wrapped up and in a bag, ready for us to run off to the airport. The family that runs this place is great.
I'll never look at another bagel the same. I love this place.
