4 Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: November 7 | Eater LA

"I don’t know how people can complain about the bagel situation in Los Angeles when we have something as unique — and undeniably delicious — as Calic Bagel in Koreatown. For the original Calic bagel, picture a soft and gently sweet dough packed with mountains of cream cheese loaded with garlic; the garlic is definitely intense and might overwhelm first thing in the morning, but as a garlic enthusiast I appreciated the punchiness. The bagels arrive steaming hot and tearing into them reveals a feathery crumb. For a bagel that feels closer to a baked potato, try the bacon and scallion bagel. The shop also slings versions inspired by pepperoni pizza and elote, as well as bagel sandwiches and standard bagels with schmear. Pair the bagels with a cream-topped banana matcha or a biscoff latte to complete the meal." - Eater Staff
