Petite Thuet — Restaurant in Toronto

Walked in on a Sunday morning with my 6 year old daughter. Excited, we planned on dropping 50+ dollars on bread and croissants to take home as we live out of town. As is with children she had to use the washroom on arrival. When we asked to use the potty we were told there wasn't one available to customers. When I explained that she was 6 and it was urgent I was met with a royal attitude and passive aggressively 'mammed' by the staff and heatedly explained to that the bathroom was not in a fit state for use by patrons. I would like to remind the owners of this establishment that Ontario building code requires food and beverage service retailers to have at least one bathroom in proper working order for patrons.

The only redeeming quality was that it didn't have a ton of almond essence like some other poor quality almond croissants often do. I also had their famed Alsatian sourdough bread. I'll be honest, other than it's nice crust oh, it really didn't taste very different from other Bakery bought white breads. Another disappointment.
