Sean, I can’t believe you wrote this sentence: “You need a mediocre bagel to make a good bagel sandwich.” But I think it’s a good sign, because you’re right, eating a sandwich made out of a really good bagel would just be a diminished experience. I got another batch from Andrew at HeyBagel the other day and they were sublime … with cream cheese and my homemade pepper jelly, which is how I roll. Adding anything more would undermine the bagel. Nice work on this review!
Thanks Tom! I never thought I'd say it either but if there's anything I've learned (and it sounds like you know as well) its that a great bagel should stand on its own.
Part of the pleasure of a good bahn mi is the crispy crinkle of the fresh baguette contrasted with the moist and crunchy fillings. So, no, not this version, thank you.

Fair enough! I have a feeling it will be pretty good on the baguette
I was skeptical but now I’m going to try this place. And I appreciate the attention to the quality and preparation of the tofu.
Let me know what you think!
