The 25 Best Restaurants In Miami - Miami - The Infatuation
"El Bagel is like Courage in LA or Apollo in NYC, the kind of shop that acts as a new-school bagel ambassador to a world all too eager to declare the line not worth it. Don’t listen to those people. The El Bagel empire is built on a flawless bagel. It’s fluffy and firm in the right places. The exterior has a blistered crust full of dozens of tiny bubbles. You can take home a bag of them with a tub of schmear, but these bagels shine brightest as one of the dozen or so sandwiches on the menu, stuffed generously and wrapped tightly in parchment paper. Our favorite is the sweet, salty, and only-in-Miami king guava." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo, mariana trabanino
