How (and Where) to Get the Best New York Style Bagels in Wisconsin

[@DeanRussellHickey]

You know...having watched Wisconsin Foodie for many years, and definitely every one of the episodes you've hosted, I always keep in mind all that "we" have experienced whenever you go into a new venue. It's as though we're both seeing something and sampling things together for the first time. Watching so many episodes does give one a sense of having developed an inherent expectation...as to atmosphere, personalities, and of course, the products that are featured. I haven't smelled or tasted anything in all this time, being on the other side of the screen, but I have enough life experience to know what you're looking for, and through the visuals and descriptions provided it really does amount to what may be the closest thing to having been there and taste tested everything for myself.

The bagel scene is really ramping up in Milwaukee, and that's really great. I hope to see Ruby's Bagels on future episode.

Best guy I’ve ever met! Best bagel I’ve ever had, hands down

All this food looks delicious

[@Xcelor8]

Man you guys put out great content! Seriously kudos to the whole production team.

I hope Allie’s opens more shops!!!?! So many national crappy chains like Einstein’s and Bruegger's that have ZERO soul throughout Milwaukee county. Keep it going and hope you guys grow!

Love bagels! Satisfying to make! Great show!

Best bagels I've ever had in Wisc were from Bagels Forever in Madison....WAAAY back in the day! (like, the 80s) Are they still around? (get it...a ROUND?) LOL Lived for awhile in Dallas...they had an authentic NYC bagel place called (ironically) "Bagelstein's." I got so spoiled by the bagels at that place, I have never yet found a place that makes bagels as good as theirs. Of course, I've never been to NYC yet either....

[@Zachlaka84]

Bagels Forever still exists but to be honest it’s been a hot minute since I had one. But I think they are still great they still are open and seem busy anytime I drive past in the morning for work

I hope Jersey Bagels in Appleton makes it sometime. I've had these 2 places - but Jersey Bagels is 10x better.

[@cbsctom7428]

Gotham Bagels...They are the best whether Madison, Chicago or NYC!

How are you going to do bagels in Wisconsin and not do Bagels Forever? I think they are the oldest bagel shop in Wisconsin!

[@bobolink7]

The host is such a hottie. 😊

[@christianhansen3292]

he is wrong Montreal bagels are sweeter cause they are boiled in honey water. oops check ur facts!

[@waterworthgardens]

If you want diabetes, eat bagels every day.

[@kmhoefs]

Thanks for your input Debby Downer, you must be a blast at parties

[@waterworthgardens]

Just stating the facts

[@KrisPaape]

@@waterworthgardens Yes, we all know we shouldn't eat bagels every day. Settle down Debby and just enjoy the show for crying out loud. We know the facts. ugh.
