your best bet is to head out to Pemberton Gardens (corner of Mass Ave. and Day St.). they carry Iggy's bagels there which are the second best bagel in Boston (behind Kupel's in Brookline), in my not so humble opinion.
Someday Cafe used to carry Iggy's bagels, and now carry some kind of glorified cardboard. when I asked them why the change, the dude at the register mumbled something about them owing Iggy's a bunch of cash...
funny you mention pemberton -- literally every time i've gone there in search of bagels they've been sold out! i must be going too late in the day. thanks for the warning about someday...i'm intimidated by all the hipsters in there anyway ;)
i live right nextdoor to pemberton--the bookstore :)...at 4am my roommates *cough* borrow some bagels from the bread truck. Yes they go quickly but at 9am on weekend they carry massive quantities...and you can get bagel sandwiches made on request...Plus!

Date: 2004-06-15 09:44 am (UTC)you'll get over being intimidated, once you realize just how dorky we all are.
(if you really want intimidation, go for diesel, and even then, you'll get over it in a few months.)

Date: 2004-06-15 09:55 am (UTC)people trying to be hip, whether doing so by feigning dorkiness or not, are often entirely unhip.
Trying to be hip is lame, getting in touch with one's inner dork is not.
The least cool people tend to be the ones who are trying to make you feel uncool.
