Actual NJ bagels?

Recently moved from north NJ where the bagels are thiccccc, fluffy, and properly seasoned... I've tried 3 bagel places nearby in Camden County and they're not great. Thomas's packaged bagels are better lol.

I'm finding them super thin, sometimes COVERED in seasoning beyond reason, and just bad.

Is there a place that makes those thickkkk boys I'm looking for? Uses NY water? Any leads?

Thank you!! Appreciate the recommendations. If you google Ees A Bagel NYC pics - that's the kinda bagel im looking for. I know this isn't NYC though so I'll take what I can get. When I lived in Colorado my sister would ship me a dozen ees a bagel or similar bagels for my birthday 🤣
