Toasted
2 Comments
I’m in New England.
Did I miss some piece of northeast etiquette about bagels? Each time the server asked if I wanted it toasted; each time I said no; each time they charred it beyond anything edible and served it to me anyway.
Three times they burned me, the fourth time I gave in and said “yes, please toast it.” Next, I’ll slip and let them put that stupid cream and sugar in the coffee for me without asking (“regular,” as they like to call it).
