Even as Bostonians defend our sports teams to competitive NYC pals, we must capitulate when it comes to who has the better bagels. Except now we have, well, Better Bagels: Sam Harden and James Grimes’ addictive hand-rolled, slow-fermented carb treasures served at Somerville’s 7ate9 Bakery, restaurants like just-opened Saltie Girl and ongoing pop-ups (including appearances at Coppa). We’ll happily spend our dough there until Better launches a brick-and-mortar location.
