I walked in and this bakery is breath taking. To a girl like me, to see all they have, and presented so beautifully, I thought I was in heaven. I actually took a while to look at everything...from the various baklava, different cakes, croissants, and pastries! I decided on a large pistachio baklava and the Kiev cake. The pistachio baklava lacked a buttery taste that I was looking for. I'm not sure if Armenian style baklava doesn't use butter in their baklava, but theirs did not impress. Also I never tasted a citrus flavor that was mild, but still there in their baklava. Maybe this style of baklava just isn't my type. The Kiev Cake was supposed to have a caramel flavor. I didn't detect that at all. In fact, the cake had no detectable flavor and it seems like the buttercream isn't buttercream, but made with cheap shortening. I took 2 bites and threw it away. As a physique athlete, I'm only going to consume what's worth the calories and this was not it! Enough for me to not have a huge interest in going back, but they have so many different items, maybe I just didn't select their best stuff? I'd like to give them 1 more try if I was already in the area. I had high hopes, hopefully next time will surprise me!
