Re: [UC] Best Bagel?
Dear Wendy, Native means to be born here. It's from the Latin root for birth. Young as you are, you only rate UC old-timer or UC long-timer. :-) If you are blessed with children, while in the 'hood, they would be considered UC natives. I am glad you are my neighbor, on list, and on the streets. Sadly, I agree that the best bagels are from Kaplan's, at third and Poplar, but I have been happy with bread and bagels purchased at Metropolitan, on 40th and Walnut, so have not made a bagel trip out of the 'hood in several years. Cyndy is more discriminating, and perhaps more portable, so she may have to taste test all of the recommendations and get back to us with the winning bagel. Belated welcome and Feliz Navidad and Buenos Annos Nuevos!

RE: [UC] Best Bagel?
Does this make me a Native American!? I've always wondered which box to check. (re: bagle -- are these bagles made here or are they made somewhere else and trucked in? Is there a place in philly that _makes_ bagles? Is it true that NY bagles taste different?) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Elizabeth F Campion Native means to be born here.

Re: [UC] Best Bagel?
lol... Well, Katz's is still there, but all the mom-and-pop stores along 14th Street have been replaced by NYU-approved national chains The best bagel I have ever had - in New York or anywhere - was from the bakery on Roosevelt Island. They trucked the bread in from a kosher baker in Queens. Slightly crunchy on the outside, satisfyingly chewy on the inside. sj Original message Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2007 11:30:06 -0500 From: Ross Bender [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [UC] Best Bagel?

New York Bagels on Haverford, just before City Line open until 5 most days, closed Saturdays, until 4 on Sunday I think. They are exactly what bagels are supposed to be.

Re: [UC] Best Bagel?
I don't know how this thread got started, but the bakery at Third Poplar is excellent also (can't remember the name; they also have the best hamentashen), besides City Line. The Kennedy Market at 19th JFK always has a great assortment of bagels and is the best small market in the whole area. They sell Acme herring in cream sauce that has enough onions. There is also the market on the first floor of the Philadelphian, called Kramer's. Best-tasting chopped liver. And if you want a real treat, try Famous Deli before Passover for fresh grated horseradish. I can't imagine the new owner discontinuing that practice. They actually used to bring an ancient grater out in the front of the store. The fumes were too strong to grate inside. It is a very large wooden contraption that seems to date to turn-of-the-century.
