Ryan Butler Teaches Weeknight Baking in Dumbo
"The former Piora pastry chef offers baking classes at his second Butler location in Dumbo. Wander the wide, cobblestone streets of Dumbo after work one night and you might run into pastry chef Ryan Butler on his way to teach a baking class. Butler is the pastry chef of his Williamsburg—and now Dumbo—namesake cafés, Butler Bake Shop and Espresso Bar, which he co-owns with hospitality wiz Rod Coligado and design-mind Hugo Murray. Follow Butler down Water Street where you’ll find his new industrial-chic and otherwise-daytime location—open as of late August—well-lit and teeming with aproned couples mixing batters and doughs. Murray and a crew of young Brooklyn personalities are on hand to keep spirits high and the rosé flowing. The new Butler location is on 40 Water Street." - Marguerite Imbert
