The bagel was really good and the man behind the counter served it to me with a smile, from what I remember. Overall this is a good stop-by joint. I give it two thumbs up.

We opted for the brioche bun and it was soft and fluffy with the super flavorful slow roasted pulled pork. The cracklings were a nice addition and we enjoyed every bite of the sandwich and were even tempted to get a second, but we knew we didn't want to be too full as we continued our adventuring in the area. This Dirty Bagels is located in Smithfield Market and it was surrounded by a lot of other food and shopping options. They also have communal seating available right by the stand which makes it easy to stop and eat or take your sandwich on the go. This would be a must stop for me anytime I'm in the area.

Definitely worth a try!

During my visit to the home of the Big Clock (haha), I convinced myself that it was in my best interested to carry on place of residence's traditional CaffeundKuchen (coffee and cake). As I walked around this area trying to find this place, I walked through commercial parts of what seems to be only auto shops, specifically focusing on the maintenance of taxis. I continued to walk around to find this bakery, despite the shady, overweight, mechanics gawking at me and the uncomfortable whistles; let's not even start on the topic of the car that pulled over to chat to me. The end of the tunnel was near, or at least I was hoping so, and a tasty cronut and a cappuccino was motivating me to get to the destination. Atlas, I have arrived! I walk into the bakery, only to be able to step in barley getting both feet inside the door. Quite a line formed on a Friday afternoon, however as I gazed around, no one was munching on these croissant-like donuts. Many ordered sandwiches, as the bakery as a fresh selection of in house baked breads, and of course a coffee drink to go with it. Before ordering my afternoon snack, used the restroom, only to be rushed out in disgust. I have (unfortunately) used gas station bathrooms that were cleaner than here. And to think this is a bakery :/ I contemplated between which flavor to get. After snapping a shot of the lined up dough creations, one of the guys behind the counter recommended the custard cronut. Per his recommendation, I sat at the counter with my custard-filled and topped cronut, with a hot cappuccino in hand. So how did this taste? Well, it's greasy... probably one of the most greasy donuts or croissants I've ever tasted. Also, it was heavy and dense. I was really disappointed as I imagined my first bite would be a light, fluffy taste of heaven. What I got was a thick, oily, pastry with a good custard filling/topping. After sharing my experience with some fellow London foodies, I was told that I should have tried the raspberry. But the topping wasn't the issue, it was the cronut dough itself and how it was baked. Is it possible I got a bad batch? Is it possible that a different flavor really makes a difference? Maybe so, but all I know is I will not be back, and my cronut-seeking adventure ends here.
