The six degrees of separation of this bagel quest led me from Detroit bagels to Bialy Baker Union and from Jewish scrap metal businesses to the Russian tea biscuits of Cleveland's Davis Bakery.
JEN, I love hearing your travelogue about Jewish bagels and bialis. My personal favorite Jewish food is Rugelach--but only if it's made with cream cheese!
Speaking of rugelach... in the picture those Cleveland tea biscuits look a lot like my mother's rugelach. (definitely filled with jam and raisins, no cream cheese)

I love rugelach as well....although I am anti-cream cheese in it.
I'll bring Zingerman's Bakehouse goods to Cleveland in 3 weeks, and bring Davis Bakery coconut bars and other treats back to A2
The perfect trade

Truth be told, I’m more of a bialy guy than I bagel guy.
A very good bialy - harder to find- is amazing.
