I have been a patron of Golden Bakery for years. Their meat, cheese, and spinach pies, their cheese bread with zatar, and on the weekends the date filled sweet bread has always been SO wonderful. But, the last few times I went in there, its like the quality has gone downhill a lot, and, some of the staff are extremely unprofessional. One female employee, idk if she's like a manager or what, but she was middle aged and shorter, she was literally arguing with my kids' grandmother!
