| Nowhere is the phrase:
"It's hard to find good help now
days." more apparent than at Marsee
Baking's multiple locations. I have
purchased food from most of their
locations and the quality of staff ranges
from excellent to moronic to surly to
"Why are you bothering me to give me
your money?". If you're lucky
enough to get someone excellent (usually
found at their flagship store on N. W.
23rd Avenue), their baked goods are
excellent and thoroughly enjoyable. They feature
several kinds of bagels...pesto, cheese,
poppy seed and "everything" are
my favorites. Toasted with hummus,
they're $1.85...a nice inexpensive, low
fat lunch sandwich.
Their
focaccia bread now comes in only two
varieties...artichoke-mushroom and
tomato-herb. Both are excellent and
for $2.50, you get a large slice...but on
the negative side, sometimes they can be
overly greasy.
They
feature several kinds of bread, with
olive pugliese my favorite at $3 a
loaf.
On the
sweet side, their cookies, cakes and
fruit tarts are excellent as well.
If you go
to one of the satellite locations,
availability can be spotty after 11 am to
noon, but the flagship store and the
airport location is usually well stocked
until closing.
