On the search for the best breakfast sandwich in Connecticut, as well as the best bagels in Connecticut, brings us to Lox Stock & Bagels in West Hartford and Granby and Bloomfield.
This is going to sound weird, but this is among the absolute breakfast sandwiches I’ve had in Connecticut and they don’t even have a flat grill.
They microwave their eggs.
Microwave.
and to be honest, I have no idea how they get away with it making a breakfast sandwich this good.
First, the jalapeno cheddar bagel.
I love jalapeno cheddar bagels.
here they use roasted jalapenos so the heat is muted but still present, and there isn’t that fresh brightness that could be odd in a breakfast sandwich.
Without using a flat grill, I’d stay away from bacon and sausage as well.
But ham, ham doesn’t need a microwave.
The cheddar on the bagel is crispy and salty, which brings out the egg.
The only downside here is the eggs are a little chewy.
The whole sandwich can lean a little heavy on salt, but if you are okay with that, you will be rewarded.
