New York- Lox & Bagels + BEC 

Welcome to The Empire State; another Great State & another Great Plate!        

Behold the legendary trio: bagel, cream cheese, and lox — a sandwich so iconic it deserves its own Broadway show. The bagels found their home in Manhattan’s Lower East Side, where Jewish immigrants from Poland looked at the local bread scene and said, “Nice try, but where are the holes?” Nearly 50 years later, a New York dairy farmer named William Lawrence had the brilliant idea to invent cream cheese. New Yorkers decided bagels slathered in creamy dairy and topped with salty cured fish, was the breakfast of champions (or at least very fashionable brunch-goers).

Our Bagels & Lox is basically brunch royalty. We’re talking a toasted, authentic NYC bagel (yes, we imported it — because you're worth it), generously schmeared with cream cheese, draped in luxurious smoked salmon, crowned with capers, sprinkled with fresh dill, and kissed with a spritz of lemon like it’s headed to a red carpet. It’s bold, it’s briny, it’s beautiful — and it’s here to make your taste buds kvell.

This week, we’re feeling dangerously generous. Why? Because we’re sitting on a glorious stockpile of authentic New York bagels. So, we're unleashing a BONUS Special: the legendary BEC — that’s Bacon, Egg, and Cheese if you’re not fluent in New Yorker.

Our version is a little wicked: farm-fresh eggs scrambled with melty cheese, an unapologetic pile of crispy bacon, and then the whole glorious mess is tucked into a warm, imported NYC bagel. Want mayo or ketchup? Pick your potion. Either way, this sandwich doesn’t ask for forgiveness — and it certainly doesn’t say sorry.

P.S. Not into bacon? We allow substitutions: turkey sausage, pork sausage, Canadian bacon, or even (gasp) no meat. We won’t judge.
