There's a UK Gourmet store a few miles up the road, I'll hit them up next week and see if they have some, if not I found a place that has reasonable slow shipping from the UK, I'll order some and send you some

There are a few brands of them out there, Rolled Gold has them, and I know a few other local chip places seem to have some shelve space in the local stores.

Here's an interesting list from USA Today. I haven't been to the places mentioned, but the criteria they use make it sound promising.
In assembling our list of the country's best bagels, we used rather strict criteria. The bagels needed to be produced in adherence with the old-fashioned style: that means boiling instead of steaming, hand-rolled instead of machine-rolled (made entirely by hand is preferable), and once the product is finished, it shouldn't be the size of your head (that's actually a modern adjustment; they had to be made larger in order to be used as sandwich bread). Also, a bagel should taste like a bagel. That should go without saying, but many store-bought bagels (and, we'll admit, most of the ones we get from bagel carts in New York), simply taste like round bread. A bagel has a malty sweetness that takes some nuance to get just right. Also, the crust needs to be an actual crust. If you squeeze it in your hand and it springs right back, that's not a bagel. When bitten into it should give slightly before the crust crunches away, and the resulting bite should be chewy without being dense, light without being airy, and deeply satisfying. Also, crazy flavors and cream cheese varieties do not a great bagel make. Your jalapeño-Asiago bagel with bacon-Cheddar-scallion cream cheese is probably delicious, but if your plain bagel with plain cream cheese isn't up to snuff, you're not on the list. We also decided against including Montreal-style bagels, which are different creatures entirely. http://www.usatoday.com/story/travel...agels/1834217/ |

For Chicago area, the article lists Kaufman's & NYC Bagel & Bialy. My go to is NYC Bagel & Bialy www.newyorkbagelandbialy.net Although a few months ago while picking up some corned beef from www.romaniankoshersausage.com (best corned beef in Chicago IMO), I bumped into fellow FTer plainsman, who was with a friend who had grown up in NYC) that said her favorite in Chicago is: www.bagelcountry.com Sadly, I have yet to get there. |
How far *outside* NYC ya wanna go?
Beigel Bake in Brick Lane, London E1
handrolled, boiled, all the making right in front of you. baker's dozen has been known. Get them 2am Sunday morning coming home from Saturday night out, together with the Sunday papers. |
Detroit has a few top notch bagel shops. The Detroit Bagel Factory is excellent and has multiple locations. The New York Bagel locations are excellent as well.

They pick 8 in the five boroughs, and another 8 around the country. http://www.usatoday.com/story/travel...agels/1834217/

Believe it or not, until a few years ago bagels were unknown in Israel!
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.

I just took a look at their Internet web site, and the bagels actually do appear to resemble New York-style bagels. Their nearest location is almost 25 miles away from where I am based. I was in that area twice last month and wish I would have known about it, but I otherwise am rarely there, so it might be some time before I visit... |
