The grain itself is the point of entry at Sullivan Street Bakery in Miami. Long before it became a celebrated name, it was founded on the simple conviction that good bread belongs to everyone. This principle, born in New York and established in Florida in 2017, is expressed through traditional methods that Italian artisans have used for centuries. The loaves are handmade, relying on a natural starter that has been cultivated for more than two decades. All mixing and shaping is done by hand at room temperature to develop a distinct complexity of flavor.\nThe results of this process are foundational to everything on offer. The kitchen is known for its Roman-style pizza, built upon a famously light and porous focaccia dough and sold by the slice with toppings like crimini mushrooms or shredded zucchini with gruyere. The bread-making heritage is also evident in the wide array of loaves, from the dark-crusted *filone* sourdough to a multigrain version incorporating sunflower, sesame, pumpkin, and flax seeds. Many of Miami's most respected restaurants build their service upon these baked goods.\nBeyond the savory, the bakery extends its philosophy to pastries and other café staples. The selection often includes brioche *canotti*, small boat-shaped pastries filled with combinations like prosciutto and fig jam or guava and ricotta. An orange and extra virgin olive oil cake is a recurring item, available in both individual and larger sizes. Flourless chocolate cookies and classic ciabatta for sandwiches round out a selection that applies an artisan’s focus to familiar forms, creating a destination built entirely on the integrity of its ingredients.
