NewYorkFirst.com: H & H Bagels Gift Box

The Toast of New York.
Most of what passes for bagels outside of New York aren't really bagels, but bagel-shaped hard rolls of varying quality and texture, nothing like the real bagels you get in the city. The "hole truth" is that H & H bagels are the city's best. They are baked to perfection, unmatched by any other bagel store. There are good bagel places throughout New York, leading one to believe that all bagels are created equal, but one visit to to H & H will quickly demolish that theory. H&H boasts a delightful consistency: dense yet chewy, with a crust that is clearly distinct from the inside yet doesn't offer too much resistance. The crust crackles, not crinkles, when you bite into it, and the flavor offers a delicately balanced dance between sweet and salty with just a kiss of yeasty goodness. Bagels from H & H will survive an overnight trip from Manhattan and arrive fresh and ready to put into the freezer. Plain or flavored, thawed one at a time and warmed slowly in a toaster-oven, with a schmear, some Nova Scotia salmon, or a little chopped liver and onion, they're as good as they are at the corner of Broadway and 80th Street.

Each bagel weights about 4 ounces Each order includes 24 bagels, 4 each of plain, cinnamon-raisin, poppy, sesame, onion and pumpernickel.
