Never again!! This is the second time, so we're two for two, that I've tried Paradise Bakery, ordering something *very* simple both times, and both times came away disgusted enough to not eat the food. First round, I ordered a toasted bagel with low-fat cream cheese and tomato. The tomato was an upcharge, fine, but the bagel literally had one tiny slice of tomato per side. The tomato was green and tough. The bagel was cold and hard as a rock. Why? Because not only had they failed to toast it, but it was also an old, stale bagel. Gross!!
I decided to give Paradise a second shot. I wanted a grilled cheese but with white cheddar and on a croissant. This too proved entirely too difficult for Paradise Bakery staff, who loaded up the croissant with far too much cheese, but failed to melt it. The result? A cold croissant with a tower of crumbly, cold hard cheese. Correct me if I'm wrong: isn't the whole point of grilled cheese to grill said cheese??? Do you think, despite my ravenous hunger, that I could even choke this down? No, I couldn't, and that makes strike two for Paradise Bakery---I will make it a point to never go back.
