Fyi I deliver to this address and the cook has a very very poor attitude. So before you leave your kids here you might want to know more about ALL of the employees. I literally got "oh its you" in an insulting tone the first time I went here. He was very short with me and kept cutting me off mid-sentence when I tried to explain a problem with the delivery instructions. I left very frustrated and because of the incident I won't be delivering there again. If he is like that with someone he just met imagine how your children are treated behind closed doors. All because I didn't want to leave the groceries the kids eat out in the rain as per their instructions. There was some blonde woman there too that had a tone with me and I felt like I walked into the twilight zone.
