The Cubans did make great bagels, but I don't believe the Cubans lasted long enough to make it into WF: that was Jumbo Hot. I used to grab a bagel sandwich sometimes from the Cubans when I worked at the Statesman -- and the Statesman was still around the corner from them. Long ago indeed!Ed Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12846657618234700638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6564134964285988310.post-25808210594813793152011-01-12T00:30:44.480+01:002011-01-12T00:30:44.480+01:00bad bagels are not always followed by good bagels....bad bagels are not always followed by good bagels. Einstein Bagels, a chain, is prospering with their brown doughnot-type bagels (they dont resemble a bagel in looks much less taste). But the artisanal bagel store on West 5th and Guadaloupe, is long gone. The owners were Jewish Cubans. These were real, boiled, genuine bagels. Whole Foods at 6th & Lamar carried the Cuban bagels until the place closed. I don't remember the name. It used to be popular to have sunday brunch there.

But of course you have to have cream cheese, and here in the country of hundreds of types of cheese, no cream cheese. It's a cruel world. <br /><br />And I never knew that bagels had to be boiled. Good to know. Now wouldn't you think all these 'bagel' places would google, 'how to make a bagel' before opening up?Sara Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06058056977783867772noreply@blogger.com
