Bagels

Bit empty in here, so here goes...

Getting on for forty years ago I used to service the fridges in a bagel shop in 
Brick Lane, east London. The lane was mainly a Jewish area then. They sold the 
bagels filled and unfilled and they were delicious. My favourite ones were the 
hot salt beef and mustard, and the smoked salmon and cream cheese. You can't 
get bagels as good as that from the supermarkets.
My favourite breakfast bagel (from the supermarket) at the moment is a bit of I 
weird one, but it works for me and I like it, it's a cinnamon and raisin bagel, 
toasted and buttered and filled with half melted cheddar and a couple of slices 
of spicy salami.
