"What more can be said about Absolute Bagels, beyond its succinct logline here as being a “filthy little store with sublime bagels” and the requisite mention that it’s nabbed just about every accolade of bagel-worthiness in its 27 years of business? For starters, standbys like sesame and chewy onion have dapper, almost pinwheeled crusts. Beneath the topcoat of seeds and salt on any given variety — mini-bagels shine here, too — there’s a blistery crust with old-school verisimilitude in spades, a given thanks to owner Sam Thongkrieng’s early work at Ess-a-Bagel. Regulars consider Absolute’s overhead ductwork and general grime as points of pride. In a nod to Thongkrieng’s heritage, they order Thai iced tea over coffee, and while some opt for the cream cheeses in goofy throwbacks like pimento-olive, most get the fat-dappled salmon or smoky whitefish. While other places imbue an assembly-line sameness to their repertoire, Thongkrieng’s bagels seem to have distinct personalities. The egg variety is buoyant, even orblike. It may have more in common with something like tong yod, a yolky Thai sweet, than a bagel, but it’s still a must-order."

"Unique intérêt : les bagels maison, croustillants à souhait et garnis à la demande. Grande variété de cream cheeses aromatisés sucrés ou salés. Délicieux, bien costaud et pas cher du tout ! Quelques tables pour se poser."

@kdalesme

"Every NY experience should maybe start with a cream cheese bagel. You can get a sense of both the quick takeaway lunch symbol of the vibrant and busy city and the welcoming and heartwarming feeling of biting in a fluffy circle of happiness. The businessman, the student and the tourist are all queuing with the same smile on their faces. 5 minutes in this shop and you may understand why some people cannot give up on this town. "
