| - for a bakery at mostly mall locations this was a pretty darn good place to get a bite to eat. i used to always love going to the one at stoneridge mall in pleasanton, california but just as i like something they always have to close it! heck they closed all of the locations close to where i live. these days when i visit friends and family in arizona i have to make a stop here to check out this great paradise location.
they have 3 great things i love. great salads, sandwiches and awesome baked goods. as for the salads i really love the chopped bbq chicken, oriental chicken salad and the southwest chicken caesar salad.
as for the sandwiches i have to pretty much get every sandwich on the paradise molasses squaw bread. it's soooo damn good, dark and sweet and became one of my all time favorite breads. if you find you like this bread ask to buy a loaf or two or three. stock up and freeze it.
the turkey cranberry,paradise club, chefs egg salad and albacore tuna sandwich are all very good but i go soooo crazy for the southwest chicken. its a grilled ancho chili marinated chicken breast, green hatch chile, avocado, salsa con queso, pepper-jack cheese, jicama, lettuce, tomato on the multi grain bread. trust me you gotta go with the paradise molasses bread. with the bread the marinated chicken and the texture of the jicama this sandwich has alot going on and i love it.
as for the baked good all bout the chippers, which were little small chocolate chip cookies. the 24 carrot cake, ham and cheese croissants and spinach and cheese quiche's are very good as well.
paradise bakery can be a dangerous place if your watching your figure but if you want to watch it tomorrow you gotta stop in and try it.
