Dirty Buns
Benjamin Kraemer
Featured Dish: Original Dirty Bun & Sourdough Chocolate Chip Cookies
European-inspired pastries shaped by childhood memories and a little New York mischief.
Dirty Buns began as a side hustle and grew into founder Benjamin Kraemer’s way of sharing the pastries and memories that shaped him. Inspired by childhood trips to Germany with his dad, Benjamin brings comforting European pastry traditions to New York. His Original Dirty Bun layers Hokkaido milk bread with Biscoff cookie butter and brown-butter cream cheese icing; the chocolate chip cookies spend three days fermenting before they meet the oven.

Somerset Soup
Zuzana Zuscinova

Slow-simmered comfort rooted in Hungarian and Slovak traditions.

STAVARA
Udarie Fernando
Featured Dish: Savory Functional Nutrition
Clean-label, protein- and fiber-rich fuel with a savory point of view.
Founder Udarie Fernando created STAVARA from a problem she knew firsthand. After more than 15 years leading teams in high-pressure environments, she could not find a nutrition bar that was clean, satisfying, high in protein and fiber—and not sweet. Working with food scientists, she built the savory option she wanted for presentations, travel days, workouts, and every moment when a whole meal is out of reach.
