"The shop is a neighborhood staple, one that Chad Conley opened in 2017 to bring Ashkenazi Jewish food and the charm of an NYC Lower East Side bagel shop to Portland. The design and vibe of the space evokes the nostalgia of an old-school New York deli, with black-and-white penny tiling and wire baskets filled with bagels. But when it comes to price, Rose Foods—and other craft bagel shops emerging across the country—can’t do things the old-fashioned way. Making great bagels with high-quality toppings and schmears is more expensive than ever." - ByKate Kassin
