    05-26-26 Interview - The Grecian Grazer Owner Sean - Who Knew Bagels Could Creat Such A Kerfuffle

    WHO KNEW BAGELS COULD CREATE SUCH A KERFUFFLE This past week I found out there was a little deli in Parker that was shipping in bagels made in New York for sale. No, I don’t eat many bagels, but living in Douglas County I can tell you it’s a real bagel wasteland. There are bagels to be found, but none of them compare to a real New York bagel. So when I saw online that I could get a real New York bagel at The Grecian Grazer, I headed over to check things out. Indeed, they have REAL bagels! In the course of chatting with Sean, the owner, we were discussing how a competing bagel shop seemed to respond, by sending people in to make crazy claims and write bad reviews online. I hate stuff like this. That’s why Sean is joining me today to chat about the cutthroat world of bagels at 2:30. If you’re in Parker, go get a sandwich or a bagel from Sean, he’s a great guy.
