Sary Elliott started a dream bakery and farm in upstate New York.
She left the corporate food world, moved upstate, and built something slow and deliberate. The bread takes three days. It’s always sold out.

“You don’t realise how good your foundation is until you’re cooking somewhere that demands everything from you.”
Chef Rochelle Uy-Rylewski is Sous Chef at Pullman Cairns International. She left Manila with a CCA diploma and walked into one of Australia's most demanding hotel kitchens. She's never looked back — but she still makes sinigang on her days off.
