Behold, Bullfrog Bagels’ Sit-Down Sibling

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Pastrami soup dumplings. Pizza bagels. Jewish ramen. Oh, and fresh pasta.
They’re all on the menu at Bullfrog Bagels in Washington, DC — the new sit-down sibling to a hugely popular bagel shop.
About that pasta: Washingtonian reports that Bullfrog covers its bagels in an egg white wash before they’re baked, which leaves a lot of unused egg yolks. Owner Jeremiah Cohen said he plans to use those yolks to make at least five different fresh pasta dishes, including a pastrami carbonara and noodles with lox, creme frâiche, salmon roe and chives.

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
