Brooklyn Boy Bagels made a huge splash at their launch on Sunday at Sydney's Darlie Laundromatic, selling out of those delicious boiled bad boys in just two hours
The Bagel has remained largely unrepresented in Australia and the reason is clear - a shitty bagel is pretty shit. You can't really get away with skimping where bagels are concerned. Enter New York raised Sydney food writer Michael Shafran (TheMeltingPot). Exhausted from years of tough, dry, sub-par bagels he took destiny into his own hands, studying master bagel-ry in the US before returning to Oz with a his own recipes for boiled bliss.
Perhaps one day we will see the salt beef of London's Brick Lane sandwiched between those holey rolls. *hint*.
Embrace the bagel. Head to the Darlie.
