California is the new bagel capital of America by Farley Elliott and Eater Staff
California has gone big on bagels in recent years, thanks in part to a glowing profile of several Los Angeles and San Francisco spots in the New York Times. Thankfully, Los Angeles is more than capable of living up to the hype, with trucks, shops, delis, and strip mall setups spread across the Southland serving fantastic bagels.
