Brioche, brunch and beyond – Montrachet’s King Street Bakery opens its doors

22 Nov 2018

Not merely content with establishing Montrachet’s Bowen Hills location as one of the go-to restaurants on the King Street strip, Shannon and Clare Kellam are also solidifying Montrachet’s reputation for top-tier baked goods.

Don’t expect to find your average pastries here – King Street Bakery’s skilled team is looking to set a new standard that’s second to none. more
