Based on a recommendation from Gen Kanai, I have tried the bagels at Maruichi Bagel. As their website says:
MARUICHI make bagel based on the way of Ess-a-Bagel as known as #1 Bagel Store in NEW YORK.My verdict? Perhaps a bit too chewy, but clearly the best bagels I've had in Japan. Doing the Atkins diet here just got harder.
