"On the busy street of York in LA’s Highland Park neighborhood, you’ll find an impatient crowd gathered around Belle’s Bagels, clamoring for their hand-rolled, slow-fermented bagels. In true LA fashion, these bagels break most purist rules. There are inventive schmears, like a bright pink beet cream cheese; an assortment of breakfast sandwiches served with 'shalom sauce' (a garlic-herb aioli); and the option to order a latke either on the side or on your bagel."
