The 20 Best Restaurants In West Philly - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"We often wake up on Saturdays wanting a bagel or bialy with as much puff as a small pillow. If you relate, head to Cleo Bagels. They bake classics like poppy, everything, and sesame that you can top with whitefish, house peanut butter, or scallion cream cheese. But it’s their signature sandwiches that really show off Cleo's tendency to go all mad scientist (in the best way). The Ramen Thing is our favorite of the combos. It layers marinated egg, pickled ginger, bamboo, togarashi mayo, seaweed crisps, and scallions, all on a bagel of your choice. Each bite is slightly sweet, salty, and has everything that makes a brothy bowl of ramen so great—but less messy. Avoid a Saturday or Sunday morning if you can. They're open seven days a week, and as early as 7:30am, Monday - Friday. You'll find you can walk right in for a sandwich on those afternoons." - candis mclean
