Beigel Bagel Busy Busy

Had read about Spitalfields market and surrounding vintage stores, so we hopped the tube to check it out (and thought we could time a snack at the nearby bagel store, or beigel store, as it was called).

Must be good with this sort of crowd in it.....this rivals most Tim's lineups:

Four guys in the back are working like crazy - either boiling, lining up on narrow boards for baking or cooling and sending them to the front for sale:

Was worried about their hours and how long the line-up would take....oh wait, they're open 24 HOURS A DAY!!!!

And it's like this, most of the time. If it's not the shoppers, it's the crowds leaving the clubs. Needless to say, they were cheap - £1 for one with generous spread of cream cheese (Cassie) or a 1/4" slab of salami (Brad). Grabbed a loaf of bread as well....70p, 5p to have it sliced.....no wonder there's a line-up.
