We like to open Sunday mornings slowly and patiently. With all due respect to the pressing world, the world can wait. We have a hungry stomach to satisfy, otherwise the whole week is ruined. And whether you skipped breakfast or not, the solution to all the difficulties of the beginning of the week is found between half-circles of dough with Jewish heritage (kosher or not, you will already decide) – the bagel. In America overseas it has already become synonymous with Jews (hey, finally a flattering synonym!), and who are we to prevent you from connecting with tradition?

And the best way to feel like a good Jew without observing a single mitzvah is through the American bakery Nola, which offers a line of bagels according to the best of Halacha, filled with a variety of more kosher and less kosher options. There are, of course, classics like a smoked salmon bagel or a cream bagel, if you really want to feel New York. But in general, if it’s a bagel, feel free to go wild with options like a bacon and egg bagel, a Deli bagel (the handsome one at the top of the article) or our recommended dish, a BEC bagel. What is it exactly? You’ll find out a few lines below. Oh, and if you’re already ordering manola, don’t you dare pass up some sweet sweet sweet dessert (because America). It may be a bit expensive in relation to the size of the portion, but not in relation to the taste.

Recommended dish? BEC bagel (56 NIS), which is on the expensive side of the scale – like most of Nola’s dishes – but my God, it’s delicious. A bagel pressed in the best of the Jewish tradition, with a filling of bacon, omelette and melted cheddar cheese. Mixing between umami , Kanchi and a bagel that absorbs all the happiness in the world.
There is an option for vegans? Certainly, although it must be admitted – they are quite basic. You can order an avocado bagel (with alfalfa sprouts, 39 NIS) or a PBJ bagel (peanut butter and jam, 20 NIS) that will make you feel like good American kids.
How do you order?? in Volt
and if idont want to? Don’t worry, you don’t have to have something light if you don’t want to, because just a few days ago we recommended you Meat is so delicious that you can eat it without any addition. And if that’s not enough, there’s always the list The best deliveries in Tel Aviv to cover you.
