What's a lox bagel, and why have i never once heard of it? D:
!! its one of these bad boys - lox refers to the salmon (traditionally brined but i use smoked) and then you usually get cream cheese and capers and onions. according to a quick google search its origins are attributed to the new york jewish community which may be why you haven't heard of it in germany
It is the best way to eat a bagel imo and if you ever come visit me I will make you one lol all that good shit on top of a toasted everything bagel?? can't be beat

Things that continue to astound me a little: people who want to vacation in NYC or Long Island not knowing how important bagels are to us. So...
* tri-state here means NY, NJ, and CT (but if you consider yourself in the NYC metro area, you can fudge it a bit)
* North America here is USA and Canada
If you're curious about the history of the New York Bagel, here's the fifteen-minute mini video essay that got me thinking about this topic.
This post was inspired by the fact that several friends who have visited NYC, with me playing tour guide, and more than one has been confused at why I insisted on the bagels as part of the experience.
