Food/restaurant rant

My favorite bagel is a big, fat jelly doughnut. Got to be from New York, though.

 

There's a chain bakery here -- about the only place to get a bagel -- and the times I stop there on the way to work, I get a whole-grain and a sesame, both toasted twice, so they're nice and crusty, with butter.

I'd never make it in New York.

 

Lox, stock and two smokin' bagels

 

A new rock bottom for the board. Who's got next?

 

Shrimp salad on an onion bagel is the nice compromise when entertaining Jewish vegetarians?

 

You can work abortion into that line. I know you can.

 

Lox is definitely not viable after 39 weeks and 7 days.

 

Plain = also acceptable bagel 'flavor'

Although, where I live in California, you cannot find a decent bagel.
I eat many bagels when I visit back east.
I eat many slices of pizza also, which California doesn't have in adequate supply.
I eat many hoagies, which California lacks.
I eat many calzones, which are terrible here.
I eat many meatballs sandwiches. However, I will say that I recently found a new sandwich place that makes fantastic meatballs. Unfortunately, California is bread-challenged, so the sandwich is still lacking, even though the balls are top-notch.

 

I've been told my balls are top notch too.

 

Another good standard, egg bagel is acceptable.
