a very good bagel.

I saw this picture on instagram about 2 weeks ago and have been obsessed with trying it ever since.

Finally made it over there this afternoon.

Where: Thompson Square Bagel on 10th & Avenue A

What: French Toast Bagel with Birthday Cake Cream Cheese

Cost: With a soy latte - under $10

Worth the Calories: Yes!

It was awesome. Get one immediately.

But it won't make you feel skinny.

Grey Dog.

So happy there is a new Grey Dog closer to my apartment.

The new one is at 244 Mulberry street. 

On this particular visit I got the bagel with cream cheese and lox, 

and it was by far the biggest one I've ever seen.  The pecan pie was enormous too.

Apparently they don't do anything small. Check it out.
