He came down to visit us for a week and we made oatmeal raisin cookies together. He was the first guest in our spare room in the new apartment. I also made focaccia from a recipe in my old Joy of Cooking and bagels.
Having been a student in NYC I believe in NY style bagels while all the ones here in Vancouver are Montreal style (or just buns in the shape of bagels). There is something about the chewiness of a NY style bagel that has real appeal. People that have had Montreal style first seem to prefer them, but I find them hard rather than chewy, and too sweet.
