On the Menu

We are pleased to welcome Hayashi Bakery and Sushi on board for the first time this Saturday. Hayashi is a new Japanese bakery that has recently opened in Bellerive Quay. They will be offering a range of sushi rolls, Japanese bun packs and a selection of Japanese snacks. They will also be tempting us with Japanese beverages (ooo, sounds interesting) in addition to a mouth-watering array of coffee and tea varieties.

What a splendid addition to the market!!
