And is it water or egg?

ETA- results from a few months of taste testing:
We tried almost all the suggested Challahs on this thread and some that weren't, in Brooklyn, including heimish, water, egg, and specialty ones like multigrain, spelt... We tried around 50 different types of Challah and our favorites we tried twice to make sure! Here are our favorites:

Heimish Challah: Gourmet Glatt's heimish challah is amazing! This is our favorite challah overall.

Water Challah: Kaffs and Ostrovitsky both delicious water challahs!

Bakery where all the Challahs types were good: Kaffs. some bakeries had an excellent egg challah but not water, and some had an excellent water but not heimish. But this bakery had good challah across the 3. (their water, egg, and heimish challahs were all very very good)

Black & White
Medium sized challah.
Tastes like home baked.
The other sizes are a more typical crumbly bakery recipe.

Doesn't Pomegranate get baked goods from Shloimys? Which pomegranate challah?
What's black and white?
Where's taam eden?

Our family loves Springs different challahs, like pretzel, multigrain, and sourdough spelt.

Is this the blupantry brand? Do they sell small challos, or only medium and large?
