![]() The jalapeños, hash brown, pepper jack cheese, and chorizo were delicious with the bagel but the tortilla wrap that it’s supposed to come with (as designated on the menu) may have been better. However, it didn’t have a proper bite and chew to it as I like my bagels to be. The sesame bagel was not toasted so it was soft and there was some sesame flavor. ![]() As a very standard bagel flavor, I expected utopia bagels to make an excellent cinnamon raisin but it tasted like a plain bagel with a few raisins here and there. I’ve had off the shelf supermarket bagels that had more flavor than the bagels here. ![]() The cinnamon raisin bagel was slightly too toasted but mostly it fell very short of my expectations because I could taste neither cinnamon nor raisin. I ordered an iced French vanilla coffee with milk and sugar (omg, I love unsweetened flavored coffee from bagel shops), a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel with regular cream cheese, and a sesame bagel with the filling of the breakfast burrito. Their bagels are about the size of a regular sized palm and eating just one will leave you a little hungry. The bagels at utopia bagel are quite small frankly, “normal” sized even, as far as bagels go. However, the staple of a New York bagel is the sheer size and monstrosity of the bagel. Second of all, I know bigger isn’t always better. First of all, I am a New Yorker and I’ve eaten my fair share of New York bagels. The rating is due to my high expectations (many accolades were given to this bagel shop and this bagel shop has a huge following) and the bagels that fell very short of my expectations. Regardless, these are just things I observed from my time in the bagel shop and do not affect my rating. You can’t wait near the counter where people order but you can’t be so far away that you don’t know whether your order is ready or not. One of the biggest reasons why the shop is so popular is because the restaurant bakes up to 15,000 bagels throughout the day. This means that while the ordering process is somewhat functional, the payment process is a bit dysfunctional. One of New York City’s most iconic foods is the bagel, and Utopia Bagels in Queens, New York has been a destination for both locals and tourists for over 40 years. You place your order with whoever is free behind the counter and you also receive/pay for your order with the same person. The ordering process is simple enough as you wait in line and one of the workers will call you when you’re next. I wasn’t in a rush so I didn’t mind but I cannot imagine trying to buy a quick bagel for breakfast before work. ![]() There has been and still is a lot of hype around this place as I waited about 30-40 minutes from ordering to getting my order. Watch the full video to see more of what goes into Utopia Bagel’s process.I live around the area but finally came to this bagel spot recently. For the last 41 years, Utopia Bagels has been slinging perfect, hand-rolled New York bagels out of its Queens storefront. “The one problem you’re going to have with my bagel, is once you eat it, you’re just not going to want any other bagel.” It takes an individual to be at the top of his game to make it good,” Spellman says. “ any craft, making it by hand is special. View 266 reviews of Utopia Bagels 1909 Utopia Pkwy, Whitestone, NY, 11357. And rollers are a dying breed.It’s not like there’s a school for bagel rollers,” he says standing over one of his employees, Henry, who has perfected the art of bagel rolling during his 27 years at the bakery. “It’s the rolling that really keeps it soft. A machine, he explains, pumps the dough over and over again, tightening it up. Spellman attributes his shop’s notoriety to two things: Having skilled workers make bagels by hand, and keeping everything - from the ingredients, to the kettle, to the oven, to the baking techniques - the same as they were 40 years ago when the shop first opened.Īnother element that Spellman believes is absolutely necessary to making a good bagel is hand-rolling the dough, versus having a machine create the round shape. It’s those techniques that make our bagels what they are.” The wildly popular Queens, NY shop is famous for its fresh bagels with soft, airy dough and a crisp crust. “Those are the things that are not talked enough about. It’s how much water you put in, it’s how much, when you proof, you let in the air,” Spellman says. “If water was the main thing that happened to a bagel that makes it great, there are about five bagel stores around my store here - they would make as good of a bagel as we make,” says Utopia Bagel shop co-owner Scott Spellman on the myth that New York City water is what gives its bagels the reputation as the best in the country. ![]() You need something more, something more thorough, you need to carry out deep cleaning services (or spring cleaning service) on the entirety of your house and give it that brand new home feeling once again. In this case, the regular cleaning you would carry out every other day won’t be enough to rid the house of all the dust and germs that came with winter and made your house their not-so-humble abode. With spring season comes a new beginning, why should your house be deprived of it? These unwanted elements are especially more in the house during winter no thanks to the general dryness and the wind that helps transport these dirt substances into our houses via windows, front doors, and other outlets.

Likewise, for you to carry out an effective deep cleaning on your house, you need to have the zeal for it. It is the zeal to play football that made Cristiano Ronaldo abandon school. It is your zeal for calculating large numbers that made you take that accounting job. ![]() Now, you will agree with me that for anything in life to be done effectively, there needs to be something involved… zeal! Yes! It’s the zeal to write that made me pick up my laptop and whip up this piece.

Now, spring cleaning or deep cleaning requires a whole lot of routine, some degree of expertise, and some really sophisticated equipment to be carried out successfully and effectively. This exercise will significantly help you rid your home of all the antiquity that came with winter and freshen it up to fit in with the new comings of spring while you anticipate summer. However, there is one thing they always seem to forget… Deep cleaning or as it is known in the spring season, spring cleaning.Īs the name suggests, spring cleaning or deep cleaning can be said to be the act of carrying out a thorough cleaning of a house during spring.

Once you’ve drawn your cards you can also opt to set up to five aside and draw that many from the deck. To compensate we made a house rule that the bonuses for legal goods at the end of the game were cut in half. In fact, there does seem to be a slight imbalance as we frequently found perfectly legal merchants more often than not came out on top, indicating that contraband maybe needs to be a bit more valuable. But wait, why wouldn’t you just load up with illegal crap every time, then? Well, you see, whichever players have the most and second most of each legal type of good at the end of the game will score the King’s bonus and the Queen’s bonus, thus whomever has the most chickens can snag an extra twenty points, for example. Every card also has a penalty as well, indicating how much either you or the Sheriff will have to pay if caught out, with the penalty for contraband obviously being fairly high. Contraband includes things like mead, crossbows, pepper and silk, and is much more valuable than the normal green Goods, with a single crossbow being worth 9 points. Cards with a red border indicate contraband that is entirely illegal, no matter how much fast talking you might to do. Chickens are by far the most valuable of the legal Goods with a value of 4, while apples are cheapest at a meagre 2. Green borders indicate perfectly legal items chicken, cheese, apples and bread, to be exact, with each having a different market value. With all that out of the way the game can begin, with each player drawing six cards from the deck of Goods. And that’s the aim of the game, to amass the most points by time each player has stepped into the Sheriff’s shoes three times, tallied by counting up the total listed on your various Goods and the amount of coins sitting before you. You’ll also be given a small pile of coins that also count toward the final score, too. Your playercard is your merchant stand where all the goods you’ve managed to get into Nottingham will be placed, ready for counting at the end of the game. ![]() This has no bearing on the gameplay as no character has any special abilities or anything of the sort. Of course, a donation to the Sheriff’s re-election campaign can go a long way to ensuring a bag gets through unchecked…*cough*Īt the start of the game you pick out a character card. Every turn a player will step into the role of the Sheriff and shake down the other players as they bring goods to market, judging them as being either honest and law-abiding or scoundrels sneaking illegal goods into Nottingham. But let’s not allow facts to get in the way of a good yarn, shall we? It’s not hard to imagine a few of these honest traders sneaking crossbows through the checking area to supply Hood and his gang, or sending some coin into the forest to aid the outlaws who must surely have had some substantial operating costs. It’s these merchants you’ll be playing as, attempting to earn as much money as possible while dealing with the rotten Sheriff whose only goal is to line his own pockets. Okay, okay, so technically the rulebook never actually mentions Robin Hood or merchants funding his activities deep within Sherwood forest. Thus we find ourselves playing The Sheriff of Nottingham. Contained within their cargo was often contraband, some intended simply for some extra coin, and others to aid the outlaws in their mission. However, much less know was the tale of the poor, completely and totally honest merchants attempting to bring their varied goods to market under the watchful eye of the Sheriff. ![]() ![]() Against him was the vile Sheriff of Nottingham. (Bonus points if you got the reference in the title.)Įverybody knows the legendary tale of Robin Hood, the outlaw who robbed from the rich and gave to the poor with the aid of his band of merry men, who typically broke out into song and performed slapstick antics, if the awesome Men in Tights is to be believed.
