A Bagel Of Fun

Todays Market On Main was more quiet than usual, probably because most of JHB was away over this long weekend. As things were getting pretty slow in the beginning there was a woosh! of hungry customers who were loving our new toasty warm bagels! Toni also added an extra ingredient today for those who wanted to spice things up a bit - Horseradish cream.

The morning was chaotic. From a business perspective, there was a miscommunication - actually no communication- between Toni and I. then to make matters worse, Toni, overslept! Of all days that Toni decides to sleep in! She is meant to be the early riser!....But we did it! By the end of the market we sold out!

Hopefully we will have some eye candy of this weekends Market On Main, but there werent as many photographers there today!

I would also like to mention our friendly next door neighbour stall - Eat Your Heart Out- for two of the most amazing cakelets. Beetroot and date akelets topped with lemon drizzle, it really tastes better than it sounds! and carrot cakelet with the most delicious cream cheese icing!!! out of this world! I've eaten soo much of it that my tummy is in a spasm! So go check their FB page out!

Clean up!

2 weeks ago on our way to the market to set up Daniel and I saw the streets in town covered in rubbish and litter. this is because Pikitup is on a strike and its such a pity because town is actually a cool place and there are art structures and monuments that are beautiful. Market On Main and Arts on Main support town and is an upper class venue in town so that others that hardly go into town can see that town is actually not as bad as they think. Unfortunetly the strike has left town and the whole of Jozi in a mess. Its not a very good welcoming site for visitors when they drive down to the market. Lets hope it clears up quick...

Salmon Sunday Update!

So today didnt go very well at all!! probably because of a few reasons like the cold weather, the very expensive salmon, the generous amounts of expensive salmon that we put on the bagels... so we hardly broke even! Next weekend unfortunately the market on main is closed! but during the week i'll be working on a few things to make the following sunday bagels even more delicious and worth it!

Probably going to start toasting and warming up the bagels for winter, get a real name, new signs, the works! if any one has a few suggestions, lay it on me!

Hope everyone had an awesome weekend! Blog soon! :) :)

Arts On Main

Toni Kagan, my sister, took the initiative on creating her own stall at a new market on Arts On Main in Johannesburg. She decided to sell delicious, creamy, tasty, decadent Salmon Bagels. She just had to get me involved so now its a partnership! We have been selling Salmon Bagels for about 5 weeks now and making a profit - not much but its worth it. 


Its a unique experience buying a Salmon Bagel at our Salmon Bagel stall, our customers become highly involved in their order and the whole process. Lets elaborate: 


Firstly, we have a variety of fresh boiled bagels to choose from. Whether you favour classic plain bagel, a daring and delicious onion bagel, a scrumptious olive bagel or for you health freaks health, whole-wheat and rye bagels.. mmmmm....
My best part of the Sunday is picking up the fresh hot bagels and the aroma wafts in my car!


Once you have chosen your bagel, you have a choice of fillings. Would you pick the creamy thick egg mayo, rocket and onion.... or treat yourself to thick cream cheese, Norwegian, Chillian, or Canadian Salmon, red onions, Green rocket and just to top it off some salty capers! 


We also customize these bagels to suite your needs! Not an onion fan, NO onions! Hate capers, what capers? more cream cheese and less rocket - you got it!


what awesome decadence to be served at  market! Hope you come by one sunday and treat yourself!
