MY BAGEL STORY

My name is Adam Dealan-de and I was inspired to make authentic bagels from my experience over 25 years ago in Vancouver Canada.

At the age of 19, I moved to the Kitsilano neighborhood in Vancouver and got a job at a downtown coffee shop. I remember one wet winter morning on my way to work at 5am, I left my apartment to walk across the Burrard Street bridge, stepped outside and was surprised by a delicious smell wafting through the air.

The streets were empty, but activity in a little bagel shop by the water caught my attention. They had a huge stove visible through their windows, and I could see bakers making hot and chewy Montreal-style bagels. I had never seen a bagel shop before and was compelled to try one. My first bite was heavenly! I did not realize what a true bagel would taste like, not at all like the bready donuts I knew of.

The desire for those unforgettable bagels never left me, and the idea of offering a real bagel experience in my community has always been in the back of my mind. And now I am proud to offer you Adam's Bagels!

Our bagels are handmade with 6 simple, high quality, unique ingredients:

• Non-GMO family grown Montana flour
• Wildflower Honey
• Organic coconut oil
• Sea salt
• Yeast
• Artesian well water

"These bagels are delicious! I started taking bites as I fished the cream cheese out of the fridge and realized the bagel was almost gone by the time I'd gotten the package open. Never had a bagel so tasty that it didn't need a topping." -Amoreena H
