Lets say in the mood for bagels.
One dozen of them. Freshly baked.
A tiny bit crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Ones so good you don't even need to toast or add anything to.
Am I dreaming I'm back east? Or can I acquire such things in Santa Cruz? Tell me please!
I got this gem of a response.
Since you're "from back east" and seem new to these parts I'll try to let you down softly. There are no good bagels here. Once more there are no good bagels in California, or east of the Mississippi for that matter. Wondering about where you can get a good bagel? First thing you do is get a map of the USA and one of those fake bagels they sell in this town. Then put the bagel on the map with the dead center of the bagel hole on NYC. Now look at the map and any place that is located in the hole of the bagel is where you can get a good bagel. Any where that the bagel covers is where you can get an “ok” bagel. Anywhere else you’re screwed.
