Le Boulanger
Le BlehBleBleh—it’s french!
Le Boulanger—The Baker is know for it’s breads. They make some pastry, breads of many varieties, sandwiches, soups, salads, pizzas, and blah blah blah. It’s higher on the scales than fast food, but it’s really just a different kind of fast food. I think about going for lunch, but they also serve breakfast and coffee. The Monu.
Not cheap for what it is though, today I ordered a half sandwich and cup of soup and water and it was over $10. Should have went with the gut choice—McDonald’s… Never go wrong there!
The clam chowder they serve everyday was of the thick variety I don’t care for personally. (tells me they rely on too much flour to thicken what I believe shouldn’t be) Also flavored with too much thyme for my liking.
The sandwich was basic turkey (poor quality sodium filled) on dutch crunch (very good bread) with avocado (lumped in one place,) lettuce (ragged outside leaf,) two small tomato slices so close to the end—no seeds and remnants of the hard white stem area.) I rearranged all the pieces removing the awful lettuce, shoddy tomatoes, spreading the avocado and turkey over the entire bread length. It was tasty, but dissappointing to say the least.
Bummer!
