Talking Pastries with Baker Renato Poliafito

For my first podcast, I am thrilled to sit down with baker Renato Poliafito , owner of Ciao, Gloria in Brooklyn, New York. I first met Renato when he was the co-owner and co-founder of Baked , and now he has his own delicious venue, with pastries and baked goods that reflect his Italian and Italian-American heritage, which include everything from breakfast sandwiches with eggs, crisp prosciutto and Calabrian aïoli on housemade brioche buns (they’re so good!), to Tricolor Bars (aka: Rainbow cooki...
