Micro-bakery for Japanese milk breads opens downtown storefront | Exclusive

When Bryson Embernate launched Maishokupan in August , he was baking his soft Japanese breads out of The Commissary, a shared kitchen space in Sibley Square downtown. Each noon, he'd roll out a small cart of his loaves and sandos and sell them for half-hour, unless he sold out sooner. Just a few months later, he's launched his own storefront, but he hasn't gone far. Maishokupan is now up and running in Sibley Square's food hall called Mercantile on Main. The soft opening, which began in late October, has brought lines of people when he opens his front door each noon. The first hour is usually hectic, he said, and the cooler, filled with neat rows of sandwiches and bread creations, empties rapidly. "I'm so grateful," he said, saying the business has ramped up much more quickly than he originally anticipated. What's on the menu at Maishukopan Maishokupan bakes Japanese milk breads called shokupan, giving them sweet and savory twists. Embernate launches a new seasonal menu each month, which he posts in advance on Instagram. Each day of the week brings a different lineup, which repeats weekly throughout the month. The menu includes: ∎ Cube-shaped loaves that range from classic

No robotaxis for Rochester—yet

On a gray day in November 2025, when Rochester roads were slick and the lawns still coated with early winter snow, something new rolled down the avenues. The spinning LiDAR receptor on the roof, plus more on the fenders, were bouncing millions of laser beams off surrounding objects. Multiple cameras plus radars fed into an onboard computer digesting and verifying all this location information and commanding the vehicle to drive down the street (although there was a human stand-by driver onboard for this run). The sight was odd enough for WROC to report it on the news. This Waymo self-driving taxi (robotaxi) was headed for Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva for an exhibit arranged by state Sen. Jeremy Cooney (for his alma mater). Waymo is a division of Alphabet, the company formerly called Google.
