AoN, I just went to a bagel shop for lunch, ordered a bagel with lox, and got a blank stare in return. A bagel with what?
After much back and forth, I finally figured out that I needed to order a bagel sandwich with wasabi smoked salmon (because they didn't know what lox was) and appropriate fixings. In response to my request for "cream cheese" they said held up a yellow square and said "cheddar"?
They never figured out what capers were, and so I went caperless.

(Aren't you in Beantown too?)
