Do NMWA folks frequent Liberty? Not sure I've ever heard of it....

 

[gdl203]

Yup. We also order lunch from there sometimes. It’s right behind Penn Station. Pretty busy but line goes fast

 

[gdl203]

By the way, Best Bagel on the same block is also top notch (been there much longer than Liberty). I have no idea why it’s not on that map.

For all that borough travel, gathering and collating information, they could have simply flown to Montreal and had a real bagel.

Eh. There’s a lot of stuff to complain about in NYC but bagels are definitely not one. Montreal and East London beigels are just a different type of bagel, but that doesn’t take anything away from a great fresh NY bagel. It’s like saying don’t bother getting a fresh slice from Upside Pizza or Scarr’s because it will never be as good as a pizza in Naples. Different things.

 

[lefty]

I truly just don't get the NY bagel. I've had plenty and always end up thinking "chewy bread with a hole in it". I will say it's easier to spread cream cheese on the NYC version.

I ate a bagel for the first time in like 10 years and it was at a Dunkin Donuts in New Jersey on Thanksgiving morning. I definitely wasn't impressed.
