OUR HISTORY
BO&MIE is first of all the story of a meeting on the benches of the School of Gastronomy FERRANDI : that of Magali and Jean-François – the two of us then students in the Bakery course for adults undergoing retraining – we decided to unite our efforts to create the Bakery that resembles us.
