One of the great mysteries of life is what makes the Long Island Bagels so good?
Some contend it is the water, which also accounts for the pizza crust. Maybe it is. Once you have had a hard roll, pizza or a bagel from the Island , you are ruined for life. The endless search begins to find the place outside of Metro New York that can produce such a wondrous thing. The lines crowd the shops sometimes 20 people long! I step up and say, "An everything egg bagel with lox and cream cheese spread." You can't do this anywhere else in the country.

Amen to the Long Island bagel.
I haven't one of them in years. I have had good bagels and pizza here in Richmond, but nothing compares to LI bagels and pizza.
Maybe a trip to LI is in order.
Lucia,
People miss these things (as far as food)from the Island: bagels, pizza, delis, diners and bakeries.
Once you lived here as you know you're spoiled.
