The way he personifies the ingredients and characterises each bagel by a worker’s signature pattern is something special to think about. Really authentic stuff to see in a world that is plagued by inauthenticity.

You can tell that he was genuinely really emotional while talking about how much he loved the shop, his craft and the people. That kind of love and passion is priceless and really warmed my heart. Also, now I crave bagels.

For the man making the dough, it speaks volumes of the owner for the worker being there for 18 years!

He is an incredible boss - he is aware of the skill for the laborers, he is respectful, understanding, friendly, and emotional.

I worked in bakeries in NY in the 70's and 80's. The older men that worked there could roll 2 bagels at a time, one in each hand. It was impressive to watch them do their thing.

I like how the owner here gives his employee props and names them... small things make people feel relevant.

"every worker here has heart and soul" and seeing the owner get emotional means you know that is a core value and it is passed down to said workers. Amazing business.

you all have no clue how difficult it is to make ONE perfect bagel. Diego is an absolute master and beast. I have been a chef for last 8 years and working in kitchens for the last 14 and I am amazed by his skill. its dudes like that that make a restaurant what it is. please respect the kitchen when you out (if they deserve it of course) weather its a nice restaurant, or grabbing your bagel in the morning. Remember that somebody or multiple ppl broke their back that morning to make it for you.
