    I really like Panera but, today! The girl who's preparing the food is in a bad mood; she made me this sandwich with whatever was left in her pantry. It's missing cheese and tomato. I ordered a Cinnamon Crunch, which I never received. The girl at the counter is very nice, but even she can't cheer up the one in the kitchen who's in a terrible mood.

    I ordered the chicken noodle soup and when I got home, there was no chicken and no noodle just broth will not try again. Never had it and I certainly won’t be coming back.
