A French baker.
A Bali morning.
Maxime Chene arrives at four. Every morning. He prepares each dough by hand before the island wakes. No shortcuts. No frozen anything. The croissants are laminated from scratch. The sourdough has been fermenting for days.
What started as a single bakery in Canggu became something bigger. Not because of marketing or investor money. Because people tasted the difference and came back. Then they told someone. Then they lined up.
Today, six locations across Bali, Jakarta, and Depok. Seventy percent of ingredients are sourced locally from the surrounding Bali environment. The same hands. The same obsession. Every single day.
