Although the bagel has made it into mainstream American culture, the bialy remains somewhat of a "stranger" to most Americans. Simply put, a bialy is only baked, not boiled and baked like a bagel. A bagel has a hole in its middle, while a bialy has a slight depression on its surface, traditionally filled with diced onions. However at Max and Benny's you can choose from the following type of bialys: plain, onion, oat bran, onion stick, plain stick and oat bran stick. So the next time that you are at the deli counter, think about complementing your bagel order with some bialys.
