We opened Sofra bakery in 2008 after a trip to Turkey where we experienced the rich yet light style of eating many meze (mainly vegetable preparations) as a meal. The variety was overwhelming, but nothing ever felt too heavy. While in Turkey we also discovered the word Sofra. Sofra encompasses everything you prepare for the table—food, place settings, glassware, décor, linens. Every Sofra is unique—we couldn’t even find two people who defined it the same way—but the translation always had a meaning with warmth of spirit, hospitality and good food. Soframiz (“our sofra”) is pages of recipes and stories that uphold how we like to cook at Sofra. Join Chef Ana as she demonstrates a few of her favorite recipes from the book (a copy of which is included with your ticket!), including some Sofra classics like cheese borek with nigella seeds, kohlrabi pancakes with bacon, and haloumi and green apple fatoush.
