La Boulangerie Boul’Mich — Restaurant in Aventura

I thought I had found the place to have breakfast in Aventura. I had been going there every day this week ordering the scrambled eggs with vegetables. Being 65, I asked yesterday what kind of oil did they use and I was told by a pregnant lady ( Venezuelan accent) that they did not use oul, that they just used Spam. Having been warned about that particular product by my Dr. I asked if they could make them for me with olive oil and I would be willing to pay extra for that, but she said they could not because they only used Spam. I still ordered the eggs albeit with some concern. Last night I went to the Aventura website and read that the eggs with vegetables were done with olive oil! This morning I went hoping to get my eggs as advertised and when I showed her the description on your website she jumped and started raising her voice at me saying that she had already told me how they were made and if I didn’t like that that was it. All in a very offensive tone. If you are recording inside you would confirm that she actually lost it and insulted me. I understand her condition might make her moody but this was too much and absolutely uncalled for. Another girl asked me if I still wanted to order them and I said yes, but immwdiately realized that I could not trust these eggs after the vitriol this woman threw at me. So I said something like “Actually I think I better not” and left. I came back because I thought I sadly had to remind her of something. I went in and told her: “How many people in Aventura give you a 20% tip for an order to go? And this is the treatment I receive from you? Now I can’t come back here because I cannot trust people that show this animosity towards me with my food. Thank you” ; Or something to that effect. There are a lor of good natured people looking for jobs all over Miami. This person is not being honest with her employers and is occupying a position better suited for a good persin. Being pregnant is not a pass for outrageous cinduct for employees. Or at least that is what I...

🥐 La Boulangerie Boul’Mich – 1 Star for the Pain (Not the Pain au Chocolat) 😵☕🧃

Ah, La Boulangerie Boul’Mich. A name so fancy, I almost expected the Eiffel Tower to rise from the floor and give me a baguette blessing. Spoiler alert: It did not. What I got instead? A tragic comedy of errors wrapped in croissants that tasted like regret and cold dreams. 🥶🥐

🎭 THE AMBIANCE: Do you like chaos? Do you enjoy the calming sound of blenders, confused servers, and children recreating the Les Misérables revolution under your table? Then congrats, you’ve found your Louvre of Lunchtime Madness. Ambiance score: “Paris in rush hour, but without the romance.” 🗼🚨

🍳 THE FOOD: I ordered a quiche. What I got was something that looked like it once knew a quiche in another life, but gave up halfway through baking to become a meh omelet with identity issues. The croissant? Let’s just say I’ve had flakier conversations with my ex. 💔🥐 And the orange juice? $9 for a thimble of juice that tasted like it had been emotionally drained by a breakup. 🍊😭

👩‍🍳 THE SERVICE: Imagine being ghosted… but in real life… by your waiter. One minute he was there, promising coffee. Next minute, he vanished like a gluten-free éclair. The only French thing about the service was the attitude — and even that was disappointingly low-energy. 🧍‍♂️

🧾 THE BILL: The total made me audibly say, “C’est WHAT?!” For the price, I expected at least a beret, a kiss on both cheeks, and maybe a free accordion serenade. Nope. Just a receipt that doubled as my list of regrets. 💸🧾

🥴 FINAL THOUGHTS: If you want to feel like you visited Paris... without the joy, flavor, or charm... this is your place. Come for the aesthetics, stay because your food takes 20 minutes to arrive and you’ve already lost hope.

⭐ 1 star because I can’t leave a croissant-shaped hole instead.

Merci, but non merci.

I’ll get my pain au chocolat somewhere less...

Edit: February 24th 2024. The food here is delicious. Their bakery selection of croissants and their egg and ham croissant sandwich are definitely recommended. Also, their fresh squeezed orange juice goes well with the food to dine in. However, when it came to the service, I was disappointed. I came here with my dad for breakfast this morning and noticed there was a waitlist. I signed in as usual. However, the waitress with glasses and a long dangling heart earring who was managing the waitlist, was disrespectful with me. She sat parties who just arrived and allowed them to skip the waitlist without any reservation, and completely disregarded not only I and my dad, but those who were waiting long before us who were also on their waitlist. When I and the others who were there earlier asked her about it, she purposefully ignored us and seated guests who skipped the waitlist and didn’t even have a reservation. I had to confront her a second time. She handled it with a lack of consideration again. Besides that, the waitress who managed my table was respectful and attentive to us. Overall, the food was great, but the organization and service needs to be improved. If it’s a busy time of the day and you plan on dining in, be prepared to fight for a table due to the lack of attention the waitress who is handling the...
