according to their website, brasserie bread is a realisation of tony papas' dream, which together with michael klausen they wanted to establish a bakery that produces bread to the quality that would be recognised as the perfect accompaniment to sydney's great dining experience, & so brasserie bread was established.
brasserie bread is located at 1737 botany road, banksmeadow in an old saw-tooth warehouse. when you step inside the shop/cafe/bakehouse, you are immediately surrounded by tables, baskets and shelves of gourmet loaves, jams, oils, danishes, friands & gourmet little cakes & pastries.
when we went (which was on a saturday), the entire place was buzzing with life and chatter. there was even a baking school! On this particular morning, the baking school was attended by a bunch of children, on a baking party - excitedly baking away and then showing off their hot artisan creations to their patiently waiting mothers who were chatting on a long table to each other over coffees. the staff were friendly & the food was good... the bread... of course was great. thumbs up, we recommend a visit if you are in the area.
