Comments on: Gayle’s Turns 30! http://christinawaters.com/2008/01/08/gayles-turns-30/ Smart Mouth Tue, 06 Jan 2009 13:02:43 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.4 by: MrsPat http://christinawaters.com/2008/01/08/gayles-turns-30/#comment-3635 Thu, 17 Jan 2008 17:14:14 +0000 http://christinawaters.com/2008/01/08/gayles-turns-30/#comment-3635 Dare I say this? Gayle's is way overrated and overpriced for what is received. Granted that the bread products could come in second to Acme's bread in San Francisco, but their sandwiches are more bread than filling. Nothing is made to order.In fact, the egg croisants with variations sit in the hot case until purchased. The Buttery turns out better tasting sweets. Gayle's has no real competition in Capitola. However, I have watched this enterprise grow over 21 years and congrate Gayle and Joe for giving the tourist trade on the weekends and holidays what they seem to want. PS One suggestion: get rid of the scotch tape on take-away items. Dare I say this? Gayle’s is way overrated and overpriced for what is received.

Gayle Ortiz was first choice, and my girl was thrilled with her firt job. She started at age 15, and within three months, was training the grown-ups. She worked there for two or three years, until she went off to college, but tells me that she still dreams about Gayle's. Great folks, the Ortizes. And hey, January 30 is Logan's birthday!! We'll get his cake at Gayle's. Thanks for the heads up. When my glorious daughter wanted a job, I thought of all the people I knew that I might do a favor for, and loan them my kid.
