Fortunately, this was immediately rectified when mentioned. I definitely will go back but think I'll try something other than a bagel.
I'm with you on the bagels. As a born and bred New Yorker, I've been really craving a true New York bagel. I stopped at Gandolfo's and had their bagel with cream cheese. Well, I'm still craving a true New York bagel. It seems impossible to get one in Florida. The rest of the menu looks promising, though. I'm just not expecting to get New York area bread.
