Candlewood Loaf — Restaurant in Joondalup

A few weeks ago I bought the best flakey homemade sausage roll from here,then a week later I went back and noticed they only had the standard beef sausage roll,so I passed,and I asked the young lady serving if they had any flakey sausage rolls,and she looked confused and asked me what I meant,I said the ones that are fattish and the pastry is flakey(because normal sausage roll is different pastry)she then went and got whoever was in the bake section and I had to ask her do they have any flakey sausage rolls and she didn't know what I was talking about either,it was very disappointing because they were the old homemade ones,then today I went in there and they had hardly any produce, usually their shelves are stacked with hot pastries bread and cakes,they only had one selection of pies left that was she said a beef and cheese,on walking back I but into it and it didn't seem to be beef it was sort of pinkish in colour and there were bacon bits at the bottom,(I don't eat bacon and cheese pies so I took it back and got a refund,I don't know but have they changed ownership?because when the other 2 ladies worked there,there was always the good sausage rolls and a wide selection of things to chose from,but the people who work there now,don't seem to have knowledge of their pastries or bread,even when I asked for a dense roll,she didn't know what I meant,just when you think you found the perfect...
