"Though Jacob Siwak, chef-owner at Forsythia on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, tries not to pay too much attention to food trends, he thought it “was cool” to see Lodi feature “an amazing looking maritozzo” so prominently on its menu. Siwak’s been serving his classic version—yeasted brioche bun filled with creme chantilly—since Forsythia first opened in October 2020, based on a recipe he developed with a friend while working in Rome." - ByAli Francis
