"Near the bustling corner of Sixth Avenue and 14th Street, Bagel Buffet was just one of many nondescript bagel stores in the city, serving up decent bagels with the usual treatments and toppings, in addition to omelets, Danish sweet rolls, several types of croissant, and, at lunch, hamburgers, toasted cheese, wraps, and paninis. But more recently Mexican food was added to the bill of fare, and it quickly outshone everything else." - Robert Sietsema
