I could go for an onion bagel with whitefish salad.
I miss the Bagel Chalet in Commack.![]()
I never heard of it but I do understand missing your old places. Back in the old days (1987-88) I worked at a gas station during the graveyard shifts. First thing I did some mornings would hit Bagel Chalet. I would order either the whitefish salad or the egg salad on a onion or everything bagel. They would put so much salad on the bagel that I would order 2 extra bagels. It was enough for me to make 3 separate sandwiches. Money was tight in those days. Some weeks I would get a dozen bagels at Bagel Chalet for around $2 and just live off bagels and butter for the week. Probably not that cheap anymore lol.The Bagel Club in Bayside off the Clearview...
Miss that place ever since I moved away.
I hear you... back in the 90's I was all about grabbing a bagel on my walk to high school (Bayside H.S. sans Zack Morris).I never heard of it but I do understand missing your old places.

There’s one close to me. They make a very good bagel.Brooklyn Bagels is pretty underrated. Think their locations are all in Queens and Manhattan though
White fish and bagels gives me some serious heartburn separately and together are insane, but that with some thinly sliced tomatoes and pickles is the SHIZ.I could go for an onion bagel with whitefish salad.

May be worth a plane flight back some day. People talk about NYC food but Long Island NY had some really great food back in the day as well.I hear you... back in the 90's I was all about grabbing a bagel on my walk to high school (Bayside H.S. sans Zack Morris).
That said... I think we call agree that once you leave Long Island/NYC the bagels become rolls with a hole in them way too fast.
I need more mayo mixed into whitefash salad than most places sell but yea whitefish salad is awesomeWhite fish and bagels gives me some serious heartburn separately and together are insane, but that with some thinly sliced tomatoes and pickles is the SHIZ.

Costco sells a 2 lb tub of ACME brand (beep beep) for like 17$, it’s pretty mayoey, I love it. Can’t freeze it though and what with my reflux so no longer buy it

2 lb. Smoked Whitefish Salad - Acme Smoked Fish
An irresistible blend of lake whitefish and creamy mayonnaise, our classic whitefish salad delivers lusciousness by the spoonful—and lays it on thick.acmesmokedfish.com
Im a food history nerd so I wonder what breeds were used to make this in Europe before the Great Lakes fish were utilized.

Whitefish salad from halibut
The North-American Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis aka the Whitefish in Whitefish salad) is not available here and frank…thejameskitchen.wordpress.com
"The North-American Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis aka the Whitefish in Whitefish salad) is not available here and frankly, not everything has to be shipped around the world when there are perfectly fine relatives (still) frolicking in European waters: Renken, Märanen, Felchen are all of the genus Coregonus."
Never heard of those fish species.
Guessing these too.

JFC. This sounds as bad as the Eli Manning interview show on MSG. Just saw an episode where the whitest of white guys tries to “be real” with Fat Joe. Max cringeness..Fox will be interviewing special guests such as teammate Alexis Lafrenière and social media stars including Boy With No Job and Sisters Snacking.
The Bagel Club in Bayside off the Clearview...

Bagel Club was very good, but I was always partial to Bagel Oasis in Fresh Meadows. Back in the 80s & 90s they were open 24 hours. It's still there, but the store was cut in half at some point.There’s one close to me. They make a very good bagel.
Utopia Bagel is still the best, but it’s too far away.
I wish they would franchise.
The one off the LIE by the Kmart (at least it was Kmart)?Bagel Club was very good, but I was always partial to Bagel Oasis in Fresh Meadows. Back in the 80s & 90s they were open 24 hours. It's still there, but the store was cut in half at some point.
