In an effort to determine the city's best bagel, a diverse panel including a congressman, pastry chef, rabbi, and recipes editor evaluated local options.
Once considered a bagel desert, the D.C. dining scene has evolved, with local bakers delivering quality bagels that challenge national chain dominance.
Narrowing down 18 contenders to the best bagel involved heated discussions about sample selection, ultimately opting for an untoasted plain bagel as a baseline.
Winners like Bread Furst and Bullfrog Bagels stand out, alongside favorites such as Bagels Etc. and newcomers like Call Your Mother, showcasing D.C.'s bagel renaissance.
