Hong Kong Grand Barista Champion stars at new cafe Holly Brown

Heralding a new era of quality in the Hong Kong cafe scene, Holly Brown opens on July 9 offering glamorous cupcakes, spot-hitting gelato and cups of coffee made by Hong Kong Grand Barista Champion Tracy Kwok. 

Kwok, formerly employed at Epoch Coffee Bar and Desserterie, won the title of Grand Barista Champion last year in Hong Kong's first such competition and went on to represent Hong Kong in the international finals. Since her win, Kwok's coffees have been a much sought-after item at Epoch. We can't wait to see her stretch her espresso-pulling muscles at her new locale.
