Spread Bagelry in Rittenhouse brought a whole new style of bagels to Philly. Montreal Style Wood Oven Bagels- a style I was unfamiliar with. A fire back in 2011 did not stop them from coming back and maintaining a steady flow of customers. To give Spread a fair chance I forced myself to come in with an open mind, which was not easy as a NYC bagel aficionado. With that said, I can’t claim that Spread has made me a Montreal style convert.

Welcome Back, Happy 2013! Recently, while exploring in Port Richmond I passed a kind of seedy looking bar. But with the old school sign announcing “Fine Homemade Polish Food” I had to try it out.
Inside, we found a colorful medley of older folk enjoying a mid day beer. Speaking of, there are many Polish beer varieties like Zyweic, which I liked. If you can withstand the cigarette smoke, yes they allow that here, you should stick around for a snack.
