Poetry would be entirely composed of haikus and sonnets dedicated to cakes and pastries if poets didn't devour their idyllic subjects before having a chance to write. Today's Groupon says what meter and rhythm cannot: for $9, you get $18 worth of bagels and pastries at Solly's Bagelry. This Groupon is valid at the locations on East 28th Avenue, West Broadway, and West Seventh Avenue.

Solly's Bagelry smatters palates with traditional Eastern European and Jewish delicacies baked fresh daily with all-natural ingredients. Sink a shivering sweet tooth into a dense, rich cinnamon bun ($2.75) or apple strudel ($2.85), or bite a baker’s dozen of bagels ($9.95) in flavours such as sesame, poppy, whole-grain, and onion. Baked and boiled by traditional means, each tantalizing torus is crusty on the outside, chewy on the inside, and round enough to be a spare tire for the gingerbread man's segway. Linger over a potato knish ($1.55) or cottage-cheese muffin ($2.25) within Solly's warm, welcoming confines, or transport a loaf of rye bread ($4.95) or challah bread ($4.95) to the dinner table, picnic blanket, or submarine portal of your choice.
