"Fast-expanding “Jew-ish” deli Call Your Mother opened its latest locale for beloved wood-fired bagels at the Pike & Rose complex in North Bethesda, Maryland, on Monday, September 20. Call Your Mother’s fifth store (11807 Grand Park Avenue) adds to the pink bagel trolley the company opened in Bethesda last June. During the pandemic, the hit D.C. deli added outposts in Capitol Hill and Georgetown, with the latter receiving a visit from President Joe Biden in January. The new, 2,300-square-foot location is open for on-site ordering and pre-order pickup from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily. It carries popular orders like the “Royal Palm” (plain cream cheese, smoked salmon, cucumbers, tomatoes, red onions, and capers on an everything bagel), a Latin-leaning pastrami sandwich on rye, babka muffins, and coffee. Co-owners Andrew Dana and 2017 Eater Young Gun Daniela Moreira debuted the hit bagel brand in Park View in fall 2018, earning a spot on Eater’s 16 best new restaurants in America the subsequent year." - Tierney Plumb
