This Store-Bought Potato Roll Brand Is Popular. But What Makes It So Special?
tastingtable.com |2025
Potatoes' pillowy, starchy pulp makes equally pillowy, hearty bread. And no brand has mastered the mighty potato roll better than Martin's potato rolls. So delicious and perfect are Martin's potato rolls that other brands and copycat home recipes try to emulate them. But what makes Martin's potato rolls so special? To understand what makes Martin's potato rolls stand out, it's first important to understand what potato rolls really are. In the states, swap a portion of whole wheat flour with either boiled and mashed potato pulp or dehydrated potato granules. The result is a buttery, slightly sweeter crumb with the most perfect, soft squish imaginable. Just as potatoes are hearty starches, potato bread has a much longer shelf life because it holds onto moisture longer and doesn't dry out as quickly as wheat bread.

How Small Bar Makes its Double Cheeseburger
avenuecalgary.com |2025
Small Bar is a new bar in Bridgeland — sort of. The space was previously known as Cannibale, a sleek-yet-friendly cocktail bar, but, after 10 years, owners Mike Hope and Shayne Perrin needed a change. Cannibale closed, and Small Bar grew from the ashes. Now more of a neighbourhood bar that draws inspiration from the North American dive bars Hope and Perrin love, Small Bar keeps it simple. That is exemplified by the double cheeseburger — a dish embodying Small Bar’s mentality of unfussy, delicious food. Executive chef Kevin Turner shares what goes into Small Bar’s version of a perfect cheeseburger.
The Bun - “We use a potato roll made by Martin’s Famous,” Turner says. “They’re known and loved for their sweet, buttery taste, pillowy texture and golden colour.” The potato roll stays soft and fluffy, but still holds up to the burger’s juices.
