--- Quote from: Carl-E on 29 Jun 2018, 21:19 ---Bagels, to me, are a basic bread, but they can be savory (toasted onion, the aforementioned poppyseed, sesame, and I'd KILL for a good egg bagel - nobody around here carries them, I've not seen one in nearly 20 years).
Toasted with a shmear of cream cheese and some thin sliced nova lox, they are the perfect food, handed down from god to Moses (the stone tablets were just there to hold the bagels...). Sweet does not hold up well under Nova lox.

I take it back. You're alright. A good egg bagel is as close as humanity has ever come to the divine. To taste that perfect balance of cream cheese and ribbon thin lox on a fresh bagel is to experience the numinous.
Morituri:
I sort of laugh at the things they call 'bagels' these days.
Hint: If the people making them didn't boil the dough, it's not actually a bagel.
What we have around now is a sort of firm soft roll that's vaguely toroidal. When you put them down on a plate they don't even clack.
Don't get me wrong, these soft rolls are actually pretty good. But they're not bagels.
OldGoat:
I am neither Jewish nor from NYC, but I was initiated at George's House of Bagels1 in San Francisco. I must agree with Morituri - only a water bagel is true.
1 Instead of spending money on a bigger sign, they vented their kitchen exhaust fan out the front of the building on to Geary Street. The rest is history.

You are history's greatest monster!
Grapes are delicious, especially if you put them into an extremely cold fridge and have them on an especially warm day.
In fact, I know what I'm doing tomorrow!

Sweet
Sweet grapes with a very sharp cheddar? Heavenly.

Where on Geary? I lived in San Francisco for most of my life, but I don't recall ever seeing George's House of Bagels.
Edit: Never mind, I looked it up on Google Maps -- the sign just says House of Bagels, and I've seen them many times. It was the "George's" part that was confusing me.
