In the land of leavened bread, the one-holed delicacy is king. B-nugs. Jewish Doughnuts. Freaky Crullers. Holy Scones. Love Muffins. Whichever way you slice it, the bagel rules supreme in complex carb delivery.
Rumour has it that certain bagel chains in California literally ship enormous drums of New York tap water cross-country in attempts to bake the boiled bullion. Lucky for us all, you don't have to go that far. That's right, no more sweating it out in customs, wondering if that cinnamon raisin goodness on your person is going to warrant a body-cavity search. Simply trot your tuchus down to Glick's.
Apart from a wide variety of plain and seeded bagels for takeaway or sandwiches, Glick's also offers a smorgasbord of blintzes, latkes, and other oddly-worded foods that will blow your tiny mind, not to mention the most oddly spacious dining room in the city, and a totally awesome mezuzah.
Handy hints for the new comer: try to avoid the Friday Shabbat rush. Go the garlic and herb bagel. Toasted. Cream cheese both sides, with smoked salmon and red onion... and call your Mother more often.
