A couple of years ago, I got horribly injured in a surfing accident. I suddenly couldn’t do any physical activity, which was a huge lifestyle change for me. A few months prior, I had visited a friend who happened to be making sourdough for his living community. He invited me to help him out with the dough and I left with a fascination for fermentation. Then while healing from my injury, I made my own sourdough starter and baked bread to keep myself occupied and to share food with my friends and roommates. Making bread is so fun and creative, and it brings so much joy to the people around me that I became obsessed and wanted to master the art.
After a while, my bread was getting really good and my friends encouraged me to offer it to the wider community. My boyfriend Udi serendipitously found a beautiful used pizza deck oven on NextDoor, and after he picked it up and installed it for me, I started selling a few loaves of bread once a week at his shop, the Venice Love Shack. The Venice Love Shack is an eclectic furniture and art store that provides creative and community space. It was the perfect place to start selling my bread. Mostly through word of mouth and walk-ins, my humble bread stand slowly grew.
My food practices are deeply rooted in expressing love and joy, nourishing my soul family, and maintaining the highest level of integrity in quality, intention, and impact. In addition to being extremely delicious, it is very important to me that the food I serve is highly nourishing and good for your body, and therefore the wider ecosystem and the whole planet. Everything at the Bakery and Cafe is Vegan and Organic. The bread we make is all naturally leavened, meaning with wild yeast NOT commercially-produced fast-acting yeast. The fermentation process destroys gluten, releases enzymes, and unlocks the nutrition of Wheat. Every single thing we serve at the cafe is made by hand with love and intention. The ingredients are all fresh, organic, and whole. All the food I serve will make you feel AMAZING! Our intention goes as far as how we dispose of waste. All of our food packaging is biodegradable, and we compost all our organic food scraps at local community gardens. Any extra bread or foods that are still good are distributed to people experiencing homelessness or otherwise hungry folks. We are not just selling food, we are pumping love and consciousness into the ecosystem, and we are building a loving, nourishing community, all while making food ART from our heART!
