Where to Find Bagels in Chicago
"This Lakeview spot from a New York City transplant achieves the city’s famous chewy-yet-crispy style by boiling and par baking the bagels in the Big Apple (where higher levels of magnesium and calcium in the city’s water supply supposedly create the desired effect) and flying them into the Chicago location, where they are baked fresh daily. Conversely, its cream cheese offerings mostly eschew tradition with options including jalapeno, fig, and vanilla walnut. Order online through the store’s website." - Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff
