A new micro bakery in the heart of Harringay
Offering a local fresh bread delivery service.
Pain d’Amis was started by Olivier Chard, a qualified baker from Paris, who moved to England in his teens.
“I wanted to keep things local so I started by delivering my breads on a bike to friends and family living within the postcodes N4 and N8.
I am now trading at the Yerbury farmers market on Saturdays, the Stroud Green farmers market on Sundays and offering a local home delivery service on Friday mornings.”
After my CAP bakery apprenticeship in Paris I moved to England. I gained valuable experience working with Nadel Patisserie and Sally Clarke. I then moved to Harrods as the assistant head baker before being promoted to head baker.
