Chez Gayane sur Valence

31/08/2026: Usually satisfied, and never buying pain au chocolat, I should have left it at that. However, I made that mistake this morning, and now I'm left with pastries that taste like they're from the day before, with a crust that's completely crumbling because they're so dry and frankly not fresh. It's just unacceptable. I'm not paying attention to anything that's already wrinkled and overcooked just by looking at it. I wasn't paying attention today. I find the quality is declining month by month, so I'm going there less and less. Anyway, the rest is okay, so I'll give it 4 stars, but still. If I may: pastries left behind a window in full sun for 12 hours are not appealing. They dry out, and it's almost unhygienic because I don't even want to imagine the temperature of pastries that are supposed to be kept clean.
