I was wary when Paradise Bakery got bought out, but I thought what could go wrong? Everything. Everything went wrong.
All my favorite reasons for coming to this location were gone. The atmosphere and cafe completely changed, somehow reducing the amount of seating in what was once a large, vast dining area that could accommodate the heavy lunch crowds this location received.
then the food. they have completely revamped the menu to fit the Panera Bread MO. In other words when I asked for Fire Roasted Tomato Soup I heard "that was unhealthy so we don't offer it anymore". When I asked for the tortellini, "We've been out of that since yesterday".
I settled on a blonde, tasteless turkey something-or-other that was advertised as "New and Fresh!" Tasteless.
I won't be coming back. Ever. I will instead have to find a new and fresh salad soup and sandwich dining experience elsewhere.
