More than 300 MIT bagel mavens noshed on samples from 10 bakers on Tuesday at the Stratton Student Center and pronounced Einstein Brothers sesame the Boston area's tastiest (what else?).

Sesame, plain and raisin bagels were rated for appearance, aroma, taste and texture as part of IAP's Bagel Week , sponsored by MIT Hillel. Other events included a bagel baking workshop and a tour of a bagel factory.

Einstein's also made MIT's top-rated raisin bagel. The best plain bagel came from Bruegger's.
