"Good news for South Bay fans: I learned the East Bay–based bagel company will open its latest outpost in Santa Clara this October at the new Mission Park Marketplace (2050 Wyatt Drive). The shop will offer a familiar selection of more than a dozen varieties of New York–style bagels, plus smoked salmon, smoked whitefish, and bagel sandwiches. Owner Emily Winston recently opened a massive new bagel plant in Berkeley powered by a bagel-making robot she designed herself (BakerBot); Winston, who earned a mechanical engineering degree from Cornell, branched out to the Peninsula in 2022 and now seems to be fulfilling her promise to bring Boichik bagels to more corners of the Bay Area." - Lauren Saria
