Our Story

About Grégoire Michaud

Raised in Switzerland and trained in the art of baking from the age of 15, Chef Grégoire has worked in some of the world’s most celebrated hotels and restaurants.

With an aspiration to redefine and elevate Hong Kong’s bakery landscape, Chef Grégoire started a wholesale bakery specialised in supplying handcrafted sourdough and fine pastries in 2013 and, five years down the line, opened his first neighbourhood shop in Wanchai.
