They pick 8 in the five boroughs, and another 8 around the country.

Interestingly enough, the # 2 on the list of best bagels in NYC is Tal's. I wonder if it is owned by the same people I mentioned in this post:

Today, there are several places where you can get acceptable bagels but the best are at Tal Bagels in Tel Aviv. They also have great shmears to put on them, including excellent chopped liver.

Forget Montreal! Have you tried BB's Bagels, Alpharetta, Ga? It is near you and listed on the USA Today list as the 2nd best bagels outside of New York.
