I worked in their father’s restaurant and saw Evrim begin this journey with his sister many years ago. The two nicest people one could imagine and deserving of all their success.
What a nice comment to post!! 👍
Eater should make an interactive map detailing all of the locations that they have made videos about. That way if people happen to be near one of these establishments that they’ve previously seen on a video, they can go and have a direct experience there. Anyone up for the challenge? Eater?!
That’s a great idea!
I’ll get right on it
@@geenonar I’m already working on it, it’s actually not that difficult of a project just tedious. They’ve made a lot of videos 😅
@@ZEFFENWULF I'd love to have a look once you've completed it! ☺
@@ZEFFENWULF How are you getting on with this? I would be interested to help.
It’s kind of mind boggling to see what these bakers are doing. Fresh milled flour, home made croissant dough and wood fired ovens. As someone in the food industry for 15 years, hardly no one expends that level and care in baking bread and pastry much less using a wood fired oven. Amazing!
the simpler the food the more complicated it is to perfect
And all that attention is just for 100 pieces of bread a day.
That Pear and Ricotta Croissant looks heavenly! 🤤🤤🤤
I need that in my life
Yummy!!! 😋🧑🏾🍳
I just wrote the EXACT same comment lol!!
They sure do!
Can we get this guy a step stool that is NOT a milk crate? 10/10 would eat everything showcased.
My thoughts exactly. That flex in the crate is terrifying
Could watch hours of this. They seriously talk about all this with serious passion. Love that people are working on something they actually like.
These siblings have an attention to detail and a wisdom in the art of making bread that came through the video, big admiration for them.
I hope your business keeps growing that some day I can smell and taste one of your creations!
Back in India before packaged flour became a thing, everyone used to get wheat and take it to a local miller once a week. The Roti's that were made from the freshly made flour was really delicious, soft. Local miller's are a lost art now
I just love local bakeries. They’re so special, and it’s such a privilege to have such skilled bakers in our community. I gladly pay $15 a loaf.
5 minutes from me in RVA and after hearing so many great things about the place and never visiting, I'm getting some of those pear croissant tomorrow! Yummy!
My Grandparents owned and operated their own Bakery in St. Louis in the 50's and 60's but their specialties were Bread, German Pastries, Cookies and Cakes. Those Pear Croissants look amazing. 😯😋
Years ago, on a visit to Richmond, I did visit Sub Rosa. I think, I happened upon it. And, I didn't think too much of it. I can't even remember what I ordered. But, I do remember it was a good experience. Of course, I had no idea about their being a wood fired bakery. And, I didn't realize all the hard work that makes the bakery what it is. Wow. When Evrim Dogu talked about his favorite bread and how it's achieved by the masonry having soaked up the heat and how that affects the texture. And, those unconventional croissants! The fig jam and cheese croissant sounded particularly alluring. I need to go back to Sub Rosa again. This time...with a whole new appreciation.
Been going here for years. Love to see the publicity. If you're in RVA I'd HIGHLY recommend stopping in. Come early and bring and umbrella because you might be waiting a while outside but it is DEFINITELY worth the wait
Coming from a chef I gotta say bakers, artisan bakers like these are artists and truly talented!!
This place is fantastic, highly recommend visiting if you're ever in Richmond. Expect to wait in line, though people are generally quite friendly and often accompanied by dogs.
Gross, tell me they aren’t allowed in the bakery?
Not hygienic indoors where food is prepped & served.
Health dept. - step up....
Dogs are kept outside, relax.
@@chloehennessey6813 Relax! 😂They stay outside. A lot of bars and restaurants are dog friendly in Richmond. It’s great!
I live 5 minutes from here! The staff and baked goods are incredible!!
There’s no wifi available, in that way you’re really encouraged to slow down and read a book or chat to people in the cafe. Such a treat to see behind the scenes!
I'm ashamed I didn't know this existed near me! Looks like I'll be driving down to Richmond soon!
Truly the most amazing bread and pastries!! They are above excellent. I am a huge fan and this video shows why!! The incredible care and effort that goes into everything they make, makes it the best in the world (in my opinion!).
i was in antalya/turkey for 4 month in 2013 and i miss the fresh bread an pastry so much. Nice to see that someone took the knowledge from the elders - i also was working as a baker in germany and there is so much work and passion into it, i love it. but most customers dont want pay more for better food, so its really rare to see a bakery like this.greetings and a happy new year ! ^^
I just stumbled on this, and it’s in my neighborhood a few blocks from my house! I can 100% vouch that the food is excellent and incredibly consistent over the years that we’ve been going
I wish places like this were more commonplace. I would definitely be a regular if they were within driving distance.
Oh, how I wish to be in Virginia.......just to visit and bring some lovely bakery goods home for my family !
Blue Oven here in Cincinnati does the same, and their bread is unreal. They also grow a lot of their own grains on the farm that they operate on.
Was getting a Turkish vibe from their goods and then the sister said the family has roots in such a beautiful country!!! I can’t wait to visit the bakery for a taste of a home that I used to know!! 💚💚💚
I mean their last name is totally Turkish. His first name is Turkish too. I am not sure about her name because it doesn't look like a common Turkish name. However, their accent is not Turkish. I believe they have born and raised in US.
@@goksuavdan1145 Yes, they’re Turkish-Americans.
Holy mother how much are these croissants? Fresh grain and fresh milled flour?! Wood oven?! This is miraculous 😋
LOVE THESE VIDEOS! Please do longer videos!
📼
My guy is so excited to be featured, he doesn't let his partner get a word in. Bless but also, my man, make space.
Colleagues and I made a point of going to Sub Rosa working a job in Richmond. Insanely good, the place smells like heaven. Things sell out fast in the morning so buy two of everything - one to eat on site, one to thank yourself with later. Can't recommend them enough, Richmond in general was a super fun place to eat in and a very interesting city.
Heck yea, go Sub Rosa! Calling them the best bakery in RVA would be an understatement. SOOOO GOOOD!
Great siblings and great business they’re running. We need more of the same shops around the U.S.
Thank you E for sharing
This is a great bakery, I visited it several times, especially the porca, which is a pastry filled with feta cheese and of course the pear pastry is heaven. The brother and sister that own the bakery are my nephew and niece. I am so proud of them.
Love when I see a restaurant from my city in a video like this!
lucky citizen
🌃
Out standing using wholesome natural ingredients and using wood 🔥 , Thank you for your Artesn work and the respect for integrity of baking .
Why did I watch this before bed?!? Looks so yummy
When driving by, the wonderful smell would compel you to stop and grab a freshly made loaf of bread or some croissants!

Amazing Bakery. He is correct, it is very rare you will see a woodfired bakery doing everything out of just the woodfired oven. They are not the only bakery doing both, but they are extremely rare.
I can feel your love and passion for the product in every sentence. Fantastic, thank you.
One of the greatest arts in the world, and this bakery looks absolutely top notch. Congratulations!
Just looks amazing, I could picture myself with a good coffee and pastry and getting bread for home, just good vibes.
Good for them. Need more businesses like this - in foods and in general
HOLY SMOLY!!!! Hats off to ya!!! FANTASTIC!!!
Love their attention to the last details (Amazing) also I understand what it takes because for years I make my own Bread. Thought many Wood Ovens growing in parts @ USA. Great work!
I always enjoy the videos on this podcast and also Mashed.
I learn a lot of neat stuff. Thank you for posting.
Very beautiful space and the product looks amazing too!
Super glad I came across this. The pear and ricotta croissant looks divine. I live some hours away, but I think I'm going to make a trip this month for sure.
This place looks AMAZING.
I have been a baker for 35 years in Australia I love what you are doing
Good job guys, love that you're grinding your own flour. You have complete control, that the way to do it.
There was a shop in Burlington, Vt. that did wood fired bagels etc...
This was the late 1990's.
Really good stuff.
That is just an honest down to earth passion for creating something memorable.
The passion for creating great food great to behold. Every aspect considered, its very cool.
This looks absolutely amazing with two people who have a passion like no other. This place is on our to-go list for sure.
Worth a trip! Especially if you like Craft Beer, as RVA has an absurd amount of great breweries.
have to be the best bakery i've seen outside germany and france :D
You guys would have big success over here as well, amazing Job.
Greetings from germany ;)
That ricotta pear pastry looked absolutely heavenly!! Yum!!
So cheerful and inspiring!
Really did enjoy this video.
Loved Turkey, the people and the food. Thanks.
Love this process.
Brilliant concept. Bakery videos are just so relaxing...
Amazing behind efforts for the delicious pastries. Yum!
i love how one guy says carmel and the girl says Caramel :)))))) i love this
Happy New Year to Everyone and their Families 🎉🎊🎇
It's not the only wood-fired bakery in the US. It IS one of the few.
Funny how their caption opposes their own title within 20 seconds.
Gotta get those clickbait view's
He said perhaps. it's definitely clickbait
Any in NYC ?
Any estimates of the actual number of them in the U.S.
So annoyed I’ve never heard of this spot even though I’ve been to Richmond numerous times. Plenty of great places to eat and drink through out the city.
Answer
Triple Crossing (Fulton
Perly’s Jewish Deli
Fancy Biscuit🔥🔥🔥
Shyndigz
ZZQ - Barbeque
Sugar Shack (donuts)
Millies (diner has brunch with drinks)
Proper Pie Co (NZ sweet & savory pies)
Saison Market - Small Bottle shop in a coffee shop with beer taps as well
Mekong (Vietnamese food)
Just to name a few
Yeah Mekong is great. They don't have the best pho in the city though
You’re right about all the amazing food in Richmond. I’ve lived here for 6 years now and just now hearing of Sub Rosa. I’m going to stop by now and try their quiche. Millies is a Richmond staple. ZZQ’s is amazing BBQ and Proper Pie Company’s savory pies are delicious. La Bodega is really good too, for authentic Cuban food. Too many great restaurants to name them all. I’m excited about trying Sub Rosa. I’ll have to try Fancy Biscuit too! Thanks for sharing your suggestions. I love finding new restaurants and bars!
I live in VA but 3 hours from them and i was still wondering if they delivered to my area lol.
Agreed on all fronts besides Mekong having the best Vietnamese food (AMAZING BEER THOUGH) and Sugar Shack being anything other than spit on donuts. Also, Saison is closing last I checked. Hope you got to check out Sub Rosa, they blow out how good everything else is out of the water. The Cinnamon Sugar Croissant Braid is the best thing I have ever had in this amazing city. (also if you need a Mexican spot, Tacos Mexico is a great taqueria SotJ).
Everything looks amazing
He's in great shape for being around all those fabulous pastries!
Croissants smell great. Yes, seeing them triggers the aroma in my mind. Not an easy thing to do.
I'm currently living in Richmond and absolutely love the Eater content. I will be visiting Sub Rosa asap, thanks Eater!
Hi- how was it? I used to live in Roanoke- next time I visit friends- I am going to try to come by Richmond to try these.
I grew up in richmond and having been to many countries their bread is some top notch fantastic bread. Any time the parents brought it home I would get excited and find some butter and have it as a snack
Richmond Virginia Native, this makes me so happy :-) thank you Eater! I’ve never felt so at home lol
Beautiful and thoughtful.
Impressive point of view explained very simple.
Fantastic 🙏🏻 love your craft 👍🏻
I love bread!! and this looks amazing!
How lovely!
Omg I can absolutely taste that pear croissant thru the screen lol 😋🤤
I do believe The Grain Shed in Spokane, WA, is another bakery that does both bread and pastries in a wood oven.
Rare craft, but one of passion!
Picked up some bread yesterday for todays breakfast. It was all good, but the bread pudding was great!
I’m heading back to Virginia right now!
This carmel pear croissant blew my mind completely. I have to try to make something similar.
Caramel
stunning video!
I'm surprised thay don't do Kouign Amann... Probably one of the most delightful pastry done with croissant dough... And so versatile... Nature or stuffed with apples or other fruits, variations are endless !
Thanks for adding actual captions for the Deaf
Their pastries look really delicious
pear/ricotta crossaint jeezus thats sounds fantastic
im french and i really do want to try their bakery!!!
Not the only wood fired bakery... The Amish have a wood fired bakery near Hazelton,Iowa...
There are 100's of wood fired bakeries in USA
Spoon mixers are my fave. They do a superior job of mixing dough.
I live in Richmond less than 10 mins and they are awesome!
Hell yes! Shout out Richmond VA
Absolutely the best bakery I've ever been to
Dang, that bakery looks delicious!!!
Gorgeous. I have a new place on my to-go list.
Amazing !!
this man is an artist
Sub Rosa opened after I left Richmond and I've made special trips back JUST for sub Rosa. they have magic
The regular croissant is my number one ever!
In case anyone was wondering, Evin means love. It is a Kurdish name.
Great bakery! I can't believe it.
Amazing!
It boggles the mind bread is only like 4 ingredients....yet so damn tasty! I remember when I was stationed in Germany we had a bakery not far from where I lived and man.....that bread was so tasty!
