And appateatly so does
Starbucks.

The Seattle-based catteine
juggernaut recently secured
jim “Montreal” Moore’s
excellent T Love Bagels (LLB)
shop to supply bagels to
approximately 80 Starbucks
locations around the Lower
Mainland.

The deal should be worth
about $90,000 per vear to
Moove and his operation and
increase HLB bagel produc-
tion from about 150 dezen
to 230 dozen per day.

Moore, an expatriate
Montrealer, opened his off-
Lonsdale shop in 1995. He
uses a traditional alder- and
maple-wood-burning brick
oven to bake his bagels, the
savoury aroma of which regu-
larly suffuses the mid-
Lonsdale air.

Moore also recently
secured the services of master
bagel baker Carlos
Rodrigues, who was air-
freighted out to the coast to
help ILB fulfil its new
Starbucks obligations.

The proof of the pudding,
as they say, is in the tasting.
ILB has got the proof by the
bagel load.
