Founded in 1884, Gottlieb's bakery was once a Savannah institution. Begun by Jewish Russian immigrant Isadore Gottlieb, the bakery was renowned for everything from its breads, to sweets and all baked goods in between. From its humble origins as a small bakery delivering goods by a horse-drawn cart, to its days as a wholesale bakery for the growing city of Savannah, Gottlieb's would remain a southern landmark until 1994. Chef and member of the Gottlieb family, Michael Gottlieb has compiled a brief history of his family's bakery including his own fond memories of what the store was like when he was young. For many years the Gottlieb family published a cookbook of their famous recipes, and much of this book includes many of those same delicious recipes, from breads to cakes, cookies and more.
