At last! Recognition for Brooklyn Bagel! There's no comparison. :) I have been known to walk there in pajamas for a mini everything bagel with cream cheese.

Also--you couldn't ask for a sweeter band of bagel guys.

I'm on it, and most of my industry is now (finally). I've found it a great way to meet people who are passionate about what they do and who they are; for me, it's a networking tool that turned into a big cocktail party of well-informed, generous people.

My handle on it is @efslattery, so feel free to look me up and mention SeriousEats. :)

Frankly, after moving to a new place every two years, I'm happy to have a tool that lets me connect to people with similar interests. Most food bloggers I know have found it to be valuable.

These seem to have disappeared from the two produce markets I go to, but we were eating them like nuts for a while: roasted, drizzled with honey, topped with goat cheese.

But that third slice usually gets flattened, and if it's toasty enough, it adds a thin, crispy layer. The club sandwich can do no wrong, in my book.

I love Bleu d'Auvergne, my favorite, in part because it's immortalized in my memory as the cheese my dad thought was so good that he named it "sex on a cracker." ;-)

Well, this won't mean much to y'all, but I wanted to play, too...
Interspar--until their customer service went south
Tesco--forgive me
Little vegetable stands scattered throughout town
Billa (supermarket; not as polished and pretty as the Austrian ones)
Chez Amis for all things falafel
Ovocny Svetozor for cakes and sugar highs

Lilla, here's a shout-out from a former Hollins girl. ;-)
