Chef Olivier Quenet’s passion for bringing the best of French tradition to Ireland has led him to fire up a great new initiative on the city’s Northside, where the Master Baker recently installed the country’s first Fresh Bread Vending Machine.
Located just outside Olivier’s bakery at North Park in Finglas, the machine dispenses freshly baked artisan Sourdough Loaves and Baguettes de Tradition Française, which are proving extremely popular with locals.
In addition to the fine selection of savoury bakes on offer, the machine also carries a number of specialty Brioche Loaves, including a delicious Lemon Twist Brioche filled with luxurious lemon curd and topped with white chocolate and mixed peel.
Restocked twice a day, seven days a week, the machine even boasts its own Loyalty Card, enabling regulars to score a free Sourdough after the eighth scan.
Bon appetit!
