I have come here two times to the bakery. I was waited on the first time I believe by the owner. He was very nice, helpful and acted very happy I came in to buy something. The second time was a different story. I came in at 10:20 am on a Saturday. Not busy at the bakery counter. I looked at the menu and thought I'd like to get a sandwich and a pastry. I asked if it was too early to order a sandwich the lady at the counter said no. So I started to order a roastbeef baguette with no tomato and onion and onion confi instead of mayo but before I could finish saying what I wanted the lady interrupted me and said the sandwiches are in the refrigerator behind you. I said yes but I wanted no Tom or onion and no mayo and she immediately got an attitude and looked really pissed off and started I guess writing down my order. I waited and she continued to have a very sour look on her face and clearly she did not want to make my sandwich. I asked her if it was a problem and she said no, we just made those, meaning the pre-made refrigerated ones. I personally do not like cold bread. I like room temp slightly crispy on the outside fresh bread. I don't like it when restaurants that sell food act mad at you when you order their food and want to buy it. I decided to go next door to the deli and get what I wanted. Without the attitude and dirty looks. I will not be back to French gourmet because obviously they do not want my business. Don't sell sandwiches if you do not want to make them.
