Saga has secured a a 3,000 square-foot space on the development’s ground floor for what will be the hospitality group’s first Brooklyn outpost.

The bakery will serve a variety of baked goods — think viennoiserie, croissants, and cookies. On the daytime restaurant side of things the menu will offer guests quintessential lunch option like salads and sandwiches.

“I’ve been working in restaurant kitchens for years, and I’ve always dreamt of operating a proper bakery to serve pastries and ice creams,” Ameni said in a statement to the Business Journal . “It feels quite fitting that my sweets shop would be in what was once a Domino Sugar Factory.”
