I generally agree with 99% of what you write. However, I recently revisited Bagel Oasis after about a month of only getting Little Market bagels. Gonna have to disagree and put Little Market at #1. There was zero crunch on any Oasis bagels. Not even the plain. And even with the other bagels flavors, Oasis just generally comes in a notch lower than Little Market in overall flavor.

Oasis def wins in the cream cheese (esp scallion!) department. Kinda surprised you still reckon Oasis is #1. They're very good to great but LM takes the prize all day for me.

You should schedule a side by side duel to the death.

Hey, that's okay! And you know what, you're not the first person to tell me they went to Bagel Oasis and left unimpressed. I think there's a consistency issue there that rears its ugly head from time to time. That's certainly something to take into account as well in future rankings.

I love the Little Market love, for sure. And we might just have to do that head-to-head soon. Stay tuned! And keep me posted on your bagel journey...

Who knew that little off-the-beaten-path-uppity market was a bagel source. Much less as a highly rated bagel source. We lived around the corner from the many previous occupants/market operators at this location. This one seems to have succeeded. Good to know. And, thanks too, Sean, for the schemer commentary.
