Mark, for example, didn't give up his usual breakfast of cream cheese and lox, but he did replace the bagels with lower-calorie bialys. |
When I was a kid, it was possible to get real lox on a real bagel in a real deli, even in New Hampshire. |
I had just knocked off three bagels and lox with cream cheese, and washed em down with four cups of very strong coffee. |
But in Ho Chi Minh City, banh mi for breakfast is as common as bagels and lox are on the Upper West Side. |
Now be off with your ideas of sensational matzah ball soup, gefilte fish, cholent and lox. |
This Sunday, I plan on consuming more bagels, cream cheese with lox, and coffee. |
