Master Class hosted by Sullivan Street Bakery<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"Jim

After studying the art of bread baking in Italy, James Beard Award-winning \u201cOutstanding Baker\u201d Jim Lahey moved back to New York City and opened his now-famous Sullivan Street Bakery<\/a> in Soho in 1994. He opened a second outpost of his popular bakery in Chelsea in 2012 and, to this day, continues to bring his small-batch bread to New Yorkers everywhere.<\/p>\n

While the bread got him his start, it\u2019s certainly not the only thing Lahey is known for. Today, he oversees Co.<\/a>, a Chelsea-based Italian artisan and pizza shop where he whips up Roman-style pizza, rustic Italian pastries, cookies, and more. He\u2019s especially renowned for his \u201cno-knead bread\u201d recipe, which inspired two books: My Bread: The Revolutionary No-Work, No-Knead Method <\/em>and My Pizza: The Easy No-Knead Way to Make Spectacular Pizza at Home. <\/em>During SOBEWFF, join him at the new South Florida location of Sullivan Street Bakery and find out how to make his famous, no-knead bread, hear his stories about learning his craft, and of course, indulge in all his best breads, bread dishes, and wine.<\/p>\n

This event will take place on Saturday, February 24th from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Sullivan Street Bakery is located at 5550 NE 4th Avenue.<\/em><\/p>\n

And his restaurants\u2014like The Inn at Pound Ridge by Jean-Georges<\/a>, ABC Kitchen<\/a>, ABC Cocina<\/a>, Simply Chicken<\/a> at Madison Square Garden, On the Rocks<\/a> at Eden Rock St. Barths, and Jean-Georges Beverly Hills<\/a>\u2014are the stuff of culinary legend.<\/p>\n
