No Real Bagels In The Bay Area?

They are just not chewy! Everybody steams around here. What I wouldn't give for an Essa Bagel right now...

Manhattan Bagel comes closest in my mind. Both bagel and pizza on this coast suffer from the "chewy issue", but I have come to find both that satisfy. Just takes some patience and persistence. Plus, each time I go home to NY, I'm stunned at the corner deli Bagel dreck my NY friends will ingest.

When I was in school, Izzy's Brooklyn Bagels in Palo Alto, CA always treated me right, and I was under the impression that they were true to New York. Huh.
