There are certain things that NYers can’t live without, and one of them is our bagels. I have been to places outside of NY that call their bread’s shaped in a circle with a hole in it a bagel, but you know better. There’s a lot more to a bagel. In NYC, we can walk a few blocks and find a few different bagel stores. We choose our favorite bagel stores based on the best tasting bagels and the best made sandwiches.
Some transplants have assured me that this is no longer an issue in Florida as many Brooklyn/NY style bagel stores have opened up. I still think that there may be something in the water that makes our NY bagels so special.
If you’re living in Florida and are a Sunshine Johnny member, please take a moment and let us know what the real deal is. You know these non-NYers claim that the bagels are just as good, but I need to hear it from one of us!
