Salt beef, gherkins, English mustard. Rye bread.

OR

A fucking great big steak, caramelised onions and English mustard (again).

I'm with you on the saltbeef, except in a _real_ bagel, not a fake one.
And Chrain instead of mustard.

and ludkas on the side

and started off with a chicken soup filled to the brim with lockshon and kanadlach.

Nice !
They need a crunchy bottom, and the hole should look more like a puckered bumhole rather a round hole that stuff can fall down.

New York Bagel Company, and the ones you get in supermarkets, make me serious sad face. Just because it's bread with a hole in the middle, doesn't mean it's a bagel.

Since I first tried it
it has become first pick, and is captain of all sauces. There are several varieties too so if you don't want it too hot you can still get the taste but not the heat. It is fantastic.

start with the Jerk/Bbq sauce as its pretty versatile and you can dip and cook with it

Ham, Cheese and Branston Pickle - The standard.
