Came around noon today and it was pretty busy (as expected). The baked goods are very good (I had the chocolate-almond croissant), and the atmosphere is always pleasant. Although the broccoli that came with the Chicken la Madeleine was kind of tasteless, the rice and chicken (with the creamy mushroom sauce) was great! The strawberry Romanoff has always been one of my favorite dishes as a child, though the tomato basil soup was a little too sour/tart. Always a great experience, though! read more

Perfect place for breakfast! I love to eat here after I get off of work in the mornings. This cute little French cafe serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner all day. The ambiance is wonderful. Lots of seating area, inside and out - self seating by the way. French music playing in the background. They even have a fire place that they light up during the winter months. When you order your food and pay, they give you a letter on a stick and when your food is ready they drop it off to you. So far I've never had a bad experience! My favorite thing to order is the chicken pesto pasta and the chicken friand, which always sells out! I've waited 20 mins for a fresh batch! Their French onion soup is delicious as well. Also, their desserts are always a treat for me. I love their mini fruit tarts and mini creme brûlée. It's to die for! read more

This is my favorite La Madeleine location. The atmosphere is so cozy and the staff is very professional and friendly. I absolutely LOVE their French coffee. It is always delicious and fresh. I've been to two if their other locations and this one just does it right! My go to order is the cafe sampler. I get the Tomato Basil Soup, Caesar salad and a half chicken Florentine. Any of their pastries and desserts are fantastic too! I truly enjoy and appreciate the variety of La Madeleine's main menu and fresh bakery I items. If I could afford it, I'd eat here every day. For a "walk down the line and carry your tray" type of restaurant, La Madeleine's still shines as a romantic and delicious destination! read more

My coworker and I went to grab lunch from LaMadeleine for the first time because we wanted to try somewhere new and different from our previous lunch places. We got to this location (Pleasant Hill) and we were blown away!! The restaurant is very clean and had a at home warm feeling. Even though we placed to-go orders, our server Elijah was amazing! He was very friendly and very knowledgeable of the menu and everything on it! I love seeing workers like that! He never got frustrated with me because I couldn't pronounce one of the French words (LOL), instead he pronounced it and now I know how to say it correctly!!! Boom!!!! Thanks so much Elijah! I already told my friends about this location!!!!!! WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!!!!! read more

We came on a Sunday morning for some pastries. They didn't have a lot of choices and the store was empty. (Dine in is open). The chocolate croissant and the almond croissant were just okay. They were not flaky. I did enjoy the chocolate chip cookie, it was soft and delicious. The employees wearing masks and they practice social distancing with 6 feet markers on the floor. read more

Ive been coming to this place for years. Unfortunately this time I didn't have a good experience. Everyone was really nice, but the chocolate croissants and the potatoes were stale and hard. One of my favorite things is the fireplace and it was out of service this time. The replacement for the croissants took too long, we had to take them to go. read more

I am sorry to say that my experience here was not the best. I am hopeful that I have the opportunity to visit again and update my review. I visited on a Sunday morning, and the restaurant was packed. I almost decided to leave and visit another spot, but my young son was losing patience with brunch experience. We waited in line about 15 minutes. I ordered two eggs and a croissant, along with a potato galette. The folks behind the counter were moving quickly. It was difficult to get the attention of someone to get the galette. Then, it was difficult to get the attention of someone to get a water glass. Then, we were informed that they were out of water glasses. We took our seat and started with some of the sourdough bread and blackberry jam (which is delicious!). Unfortunately, the jam containers were sticky, leaving messy fingers at our table. We waited over twenty minutes for the scrambled eggs and croissant. Judging by the warm temperature of the croissant, they may have been waiting for it to come out of the oven. The eggs were not so warm. That morning, it seemed they were busy and working hard to serve a large number of guests. Generally, I like La Madeline, so I am hopeful I have a better experience next time. If I do, I will be sure to update here. read more

This is not the first time my family and I come to this location or this restaurant. We came today my dad stopped by to get a potato soup he asked the server for some bread. Was told that they did not have any even though they had it on the tray he also asked for a large soup and they only gave him half of the container. He went back and asked the server for a receipt and instead the " manager "told the server to just give him a refund . On his way out he said he was escorted by the server to the door talking under his breath . Obviously he did this knowing that my dad was not going to be able to talk back to him because he doesn't know much English. You guys don't even deserve a single star . Yes ! It was o my one soup , yessss! Just $7.00 . It doesn't matter !!! What gets me mad it's the costumer service they gave him . More like a skin color problem. We don't come here to ask for fee food ! We paying for it . But if your employees are having a bad day , or aren't getting paid enough for what they do or don't like their job . Just let them go and close down the place . read more

This review is just based on their dessert. I didn't have a chance to grab lunch or dinner. I went there with a friend after dinner for desserts. We both wanted cakes! However, by the time we were there, most of their desserts were gone. They're very popular so get there early if you want variety of cakes and tarts to choose from. We only got to choose from a whole fruit tart, mini lemon tart, or a mini chocolate tart. We both chose a mini lemon tart (bite size). I also picked up a bag of chocolate chip cookies on the counter (6 per bag). Lemon tart was really good. The sweetness and tartiness of lemon flavor was well balanced. However, I felt it tasted a big refrigerator taste. What that means is that I felt the tarts were in the refrigerator for a long time. Pie crust was not crunchy as I wanted it to be. It was still delicious though. Surprisingly, chocolate chip cookies were the highlight of the dessert. Best chocolate chip cookies I ever had. Freshly baked, crunchy, sweet and delicious. I finished the bag by myself (ok, I shared 2 pieces). I definitely will go back to grab more bags of them. So overall, I think their desserts are . I will return to try their meals and update the review. read more

This is probably one of my favorite brunch places in the area. Each time I come, the quality and the service is always consistent and excellent! The inside is like you walked in on a little piece of Europe, and the bathroom has Music/learning French words. They have a variety of foods on their menu, which ranges from different kinds of breads, soups, pastas, salads, etc. I always always get the tomato bisque!!!! It's absolutely delicious. You also get unlimited free bread with strawberry or blackberry jam. So it's kind of like a lunch line, and you place your order and get a letter, choose your drinks, salad, soup, and pay at the end of the line. Then they bring you the food you ordered after it's done being made. read more

An hour wait for a sandwich, eggs, sausage, and pre-made potatoes and croissant - ridiculous!!

Environment: I absolutely love the interior of this place. It really gives off a French, kind of a Beauty and the Beast vibe to me! It's nice and cozy, and the lighting is dim and easy on the eyes but bright enough so everything is lit up beautifully. There are many tables, so seating would not be a problem at all. Mood: The mood is a casual, French air. The layout of it is just delightful and aesthetically very cute! I would love to go here for a romantic date or just a nice hangout with a friend or a group of friends! Service: The staff was very nice. The cashier welcomed me with a smile. Because it was my first time here, I asked a lot of questions, and the cashier was kind enough to explain everything to me. She was very patient with me as well! Food: I had a lemon cake, and it was good! The first couple of bites were a nice, sweet flavor accompanied by a light lemon taste that wasn't too strong. I have to say, though, after a couple bites, the cake seemed to get a little sweeter, which wouldn't be a problem for me (I have a massive sweet tooth), but the flavor seemed to get a little more artificial. My friend got the strawberry cheesecake, which was a little more cheesy than other cheesecakes I've tried. I didn't mind it. It wasn't too sweet, so it was light in that sense, but the cheesiness did give it a bit more heaviness to it. Personal thoughts: Would definitely come here again. Don't expect phenomenal desserts, but they are very good. I would not say that they're the best desserts I've ever had, but they are better than most! This is a great hangout place as well as a date place. I hope to come here again! read more

Great prices and quick service. Perfect for a quick solo lunch or extended breakfast date. Food quality (from the counter) sometimes misses the mark-but everything made to order is always stellar. read more

Breakfast was simple but good. The orange juice was fresh squeezed and the croissants were very good. The hash browns were also delicious.

It's a European style caffe chain, so don't expect American service. You have to wait for yourself, and you have to pay in advance... Which adds to the charm, if you ask me. read more

I love this concept. It's basically a French themed Panera. Good affordable food and GREAT pastries in a fast casual setting. All pastries made in house! read more

DANG IT!!! It hasn't been one week since I declared to the Yelp world that I plan to eat healthier for the next 3 months. I debated with myself heavily over coming here for a nice solo breakfast since I'm not very familiar with French foods. However after this visit, I quickly learned that "French" cuisine means rich creams and sauces. THE SCENE In my efforts to eat healthier I don't think I did myself any favors by coming to La Madeleine. I've visited this location years ago not really paying attention to the fact that it was French food. In those days the only thing I was interested in was the Tuna Salad croissant sandwich. I was in the area today which allowed me the opportunity to try them again. I must say the menu looks phenomenal. So many great looking sandwiches and entrees that it was difficult figuring out exactly what I wanted to order. I asked a staff member working there what were A) the popular dishes and B) her favorites. She guided me towards a dish that looked amazing on the menu... the chicken crepe. Whooo Hooo! I'm gonna be eating French food y'all!!! ------------ - - - - - - THE DETAILS Date & Time: Sunday, January 6th, 2013 @ 1:30pm Dining Companions: Solo What to expect: French country deco, low ceiling, brick accents, wood floors - very charming Server: Heidi L (thanks for the suggestions) Liquid: water Ordered: Chicken Crepe (4 out of 5 stars) - $9.99 w/potato gallett ($1.69) French vanilla crème brulee ($1.79) Dislikes: None, but I wasn't prepared for such rich creams & wine sauces Total: $14.28 ------------ - - - - - THE FOOD The restaurant was packed wall-to-wall with people which was a good thing in my opinion because I was questioning if I wanted to eat here (lots of people = good food). One patron in line behind me got a huge kick out of my confusion over what to order. She really took the time to guide me through the menu items that she loves, one being the tomato bisque soup. Now I've had tomato bisque soup at several restaurants but none of them have tasted this smooth. It was rich and creamy in a way that I hadn't experienced before. It was only a sample cup, but I'll be sure to order this with a sandwich on my next visit. Back to the Chicken Crepe --- This meal was all kinds of delicious. I don't want to know what it cost me in calories, but well worth it to have something this tasty. It was the kind of meal that makes you want to relax all swaddled up in comforters and flannel PJ's near a fire with a great book. Aiding those warm & fuzzy feelings was the lovely country french decor of La Madeleine. It's cozy enough for couples, welcoming enough for families, and warm enough for a solo diner like me. The fireplace was going, people were laughing and talking, and the staff was busy, busy, busy rapidly delivering food in their chef uniforms to all the hungry tables. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if I could walk out to a view of the Eiffel Tower. Lots of charm here and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Not part of my plan or good for my calorie count was a little mini crème brulee I purchased while checking out. It was a perfect treat after my meal! THE VERDICT The menu was one of the first I've seen in a while that made me want to try every item listed. Overall the food was about a 3.75 but the atmosphere was easily a cheerful 5. I've said it many time: There is something about the way a place makes you feel that enhances the flavor of the food. I really look forward to coming back to taste something new!

The location of this place is sort of weird. It's at the far right side of a huge parking lot area where Staples is. Nevertheless, this place is cute and cozy. They have a nice little fireplace with real fire burning, and friendly workers. When you enter the cafe, there is a menu stand in the middle. Choose your entree, and when you're ready, order at the front of the line. As you go down the line with your tray, you can choose to add soups or desserts. At the end of the line, the cashier waits patiently for you to pay for your food. If you ordered something that may take a while to prepare, then you are given a big spoon, which helps the workers locate you. There's a little section after the register with utensils. A few steps ahead, there's [complimentary] bread with delicious homemade jam (the raspberry jam is delish), and butter. Then there's the coffee section, because the coffee is self-service with a wide selection of creams and sugar, as well as honey. The bread is delicious with butter and a drizzle of honey. But that's just my opinion. The complimentary bread is awesome because it's like an appetizer you eat while waiting on your main entree! Very smart. I have tried the Pesto pasta with chicken and another time with shrimp. The Pesto with Shrimp pasta was really good. The only thing that I was disappointed in was the overcooked pasta. Tasted mushy. Other than that, everything else was good. This place is a cute date spot, or just a nice place to eat and catch up with friends. I gave this place three stars because the food was a-ok, and I wouldn't go out of my way to go to this place. If I'm in the area, and craving pesto pasta, then I'll go. read more

This time we decided to get the French Toast, and it was the best decision. The texture and the taste was phenomenal. The process of ordering food here is not very clear.

I've been going to this place since I was little and it never gets old. Located off the Pleasant Hill exit (104 off 85). The set up is different from most restaurants, it's more of a "cafeteria style." When you walk in you can see the French cafe theme, before the line to order begins there is a couple menus sitting on a table and a bench nearby to give people time to order. The fireplace is cozy in the winter and the outdoor seating makes for great lunches in the spring. The tomato soup is The GOAT, I cannot express my love for this soup in words, and the fact that you can buy it to make at home is wonderful. The aura is tranquil here and I love catching up with friends here. It's also so close to many other food spots and coffee shops. Only negative about this place is the front, I wish they had a clear set up of how or where to order. I see many first timers not knowing what to do or where to go lol. It's quite amusing. All in all this is my go to spot for a lunch date with my girls. Time to time I get really bad cravings for this place and it never fails to satisfy! read more

This cafe undoubtedly has the best tomato basil soup I've ever had! I wish I wasn't flying from out of town so that I could buy a whole jar of their soup and bring back to Miami with me. It's dense, the perfect touch of creamy, and packed with that tummy tomato and basil flavor. Top it off with some Swiss cheese and you've got heaven in your mouth! Fresh bread in white, wheat, and honey wheat are complimentary at the bread bar with blackberry and strawberry preserves. Blackberry is my favorite. My mom and I split the chicken friand which is drizzled with a creamy mushroom gravy. You MUST a try it with the mushroom sauce, don't even think about skipping that part cause it's exactly what you need to complete this filling quiche. We paid a very decent amount for everything and left with our stomachs stuffed and happy. read more

Come here all the time for lunch with my friends after our work out sessions. The atmosphere was nice and the staff was friendly. Most of the time, I would get the Chicken Crepe Riviera and it was always delicious. The sour dough bread was fresh too. I also liked the creamy Tomato Basil Soup. My friends also seemed to enjoy the food here. There's plenty of parking if you decide to have a private party. They have a large party room for you and your guests. My friends had breakfast food since they do serve breakfast all day long. Wow! The desserts are good too. Overall, a great place to hang out. We found a cozy place near the fireplace when it was cold and windy outside. Ahh, such a homey feel at this place. Yelp 8/365 read more

I don't know how La Madeleine compares to other French restaurants, but I really enjoyed everything that I ordered here. I also like the free bread and jams. The chicken friand, croque monsieur, and tomato basil soup were rather rich and heavy. However, the menu also included some lighter options, which were helpfully labeled with their caloric values. My favorite is currently the vanilla fruit parfait, which is light and refreshing! The fresh fruit tart was semi-sweet and decent, but I would try the other desserts before getting that one again. Another thing: f2o's tomato bisque is tastier, creamier, and more complex in flavor than La Madeleine's tomato basil soup. The atmosphere is quaint and cozy with a real fire in the hearth. read more

Food was really good but the ordering process was confusing since it was my first time. It took us a few minutes to figure out how to order and many people around us seemed to do the same. We didn't realize that you ordered food at the line and paid at the end and got a salad or other sides only if we wanted it. Anyways, I got something called la pasta Madeleine and my mom got pesto pasta and both tasted great! (My favorite thing here though was probably the free bread and jam because the jams are SO GOOD) read more

la Madeleine - Pasta la Madeleine Pesto Pasta - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

La Madeleine: Imagine a slightly French Panera Bread and that's what you get here. What makes this restaurant charming is the interior layout and small-town café theme. It all made sense and made feel like I was in Paris. The menu even boasted quiches, crepes, and pastries: all of which sounded wonderful on paper. The thing that made this experience subpar was the food itself and the cafeteria-style with which we got our food. When ordering, you go through a line with a tray to order bread, quiches, salad, etc, and then you take a seat. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind cafeteria-style food and cafeterias in general, but I did not like this at all especially given how fast the food came out, which makes me think the food was pre-made or microwaved. The quiches were disgusting, so I would recommend not getting those unless you're getting them for your dog. The chicken pesto pasta however reminded me that not all things at this café were bad. It was creamy and the chicken was excellent. The sauce on the crepes were almost identical to the chicken pesto sauce, and I would not be able to tell the difference between the one here and the one in Ikea in a blind taste test. Overall the quality of the ingredients seemed pretty low. I don't know if I would come back to eat here, but this café seems nice for meetings. read more

I would like to try something different since I'm an alien vacationing from CA. Therefore, Kat and I settled at La Madeleine, which reminded me of this TV commercial - "Where's my madeleine?" After the hike, we were hungry like a WOLF!!! Everything smelled and looked incredibly good and declicious. Without hesitant, we quickly ordered a cup of tomato basil soup, chicken friand, shrimp crepe florentine and crepe romanoff. We then sat at a small round table by the window and waited for our crepes. No wonder the tomato basil soup is their signature soup. It was so light and refreshing as you could taste the freshness blend of tomatoes and basil in your mouth. You can even purchase the readily packed soup in a jar for yourself or gifts to friends. Oooooh, my first bite of that warm and fluffy chicken friand was so darn good. If I've a stomach as big as a cow, I would swallow another chicken friand!!! After all, I had no complaints except for the crepe romanoff was like a mediocre and fell short compare to the shrimp crepe florentine. read more

My friend and I wanted a traditional american style breakfast (like eggs, pancakes, bacon and toast) and decided to check this place out! I. FOOD & DRINKS I order the Quiche Florentine and it was oookay. The crust was kind of hard and seem like it was cooked and frozen the night before, it was warm but not heated up. I also had bacon and potato galette which the bacon was basic (microwavable tasting) but the potato was delicious and had a rosemary thyme seasoning to it. Coffee tasted burnt. II. SERVICE I didn't expect this place to be order first before sitting down. I was kind of confused and felt rush because the menu wasn't listed on a board but instead on a folded menu hidden next to the "place your order here" area. There was a swarm of people behind me waiting to order and of course we let them go ahead since it was our first time there. It was kind of disorganized when I placed my order and had to grab a tray and pick up my food as I make my way to purchase my food. I didn't know what to grab or what direction to go since it was my first time and the employees didn't direct me as of what to do. They will give you a number so the food runner will indicate who to give the food to. As I was getting my silverware and coffee, the runner handed me my food midway while I was pouring my coffee and just felt rush having to grab my own food before even sitting down. III. ATMOSPHERE/DECOR Three random doors that will lead you inside. Rustic country style inside, very cute. IV. PRICES $5-13 not too bad V. OVERALL I would go here if it was a big group but will not try it again anytime soon. read more

Yup! I got talked into coming here. I have to admit that l liked the chicken crepe. Naturally being French food it was loaded with cheeses and other creamy sauces. I liked the Tomato Basil soup too. The tomato basil soup has a very lively flavor. It has a deep richness to it. The tomato adds a sourness to it but, basil, cheese, and other ingredience balances this out well. Yes, I said cheese again. Complement it with a litte freshly cracked pepper just for the bite. I gave it a few quick turns on the grinder which did it some justice. The potato galette(hash brown) tasted pretty good. This is more of a place to hang out. Perhaps this is not the type of french food I am used to. I realize that French portions are small and are cooked to be very flavorful, having a "burst" of flavor. With exception to the soup the portions only met the first criteria. I must also take into consideration that I have not tried that many menu items so my opinion is skewed. The items I have tried (esp. The tomato basil soup) were good. 70/100 read more

Great place. I loved the ambience, service and warmth of the place. Location is great, right on Pleasent Hill Rd; so very convenient for me. Plenty of parking, as it's in a huge plaza that has RTG, Toys R us and On the Border etc. I got here based on a review from one of my friend on yelp This was my first visit. So after burning 600 calories at the gym, I was looking for a breakfast with protein and some carb punch. I ordered custom omelette and replaced croissant with baguette, and a coffee. Pretty casual and friendly environment; you place your order at the counter, pay for it and sit at a table. They will bring food to you. The order came out way sooner than I expected. I wanted to try something different so I ordered a potato galette, which looked like a potato patty to me, turned out to be French version of hash brown, with very strong taste of cheese and I believe green onion. All of this, with free coffee refills and 2 hours of cozy and relaxing surrounding on a lazy Saturday morning costed only $13 bucks.....can't get any better. Highly recommended and will definitely be back. read more

My husband and I have been here for lunch in the past. Usually we have a good experience. Today was not so great. We waited 20 minutes to receive our sandwiches and mine wasn't that hot (the fillings were still cold) and frankly I've had better at Panera Bread. The Tomato basil soup was pretty good. My husband had the French dip. It had good flavor but pretty skimpy on the fillings. Not a big fan of their chips. Also, there was no social distancing among the tables (no tables blocked off). I'm pretty sure the regulations for COVID still require 6ft between patrons of different parties. Felt like there were too many people in the restaurant. read more

Great atmosphere with a tasteful menu for breakfast or lunch. I have come here for several years and having just spent time in France it is remarkable how much the restaurant makes you feel like you are in the French countryside, but the food is one star below great. Setup like a cafeteria style ordering process you walk to the counter and select along a line of offering or order from the menu. The people working are very friendly and have always made me feel welcome. While the food is good the quality of the ingredients is not always great. You can tell the breads are not made on site and that for such an amazing atmosphere that they did not try and get as creative with all ingredients. Would have loved to see some fresh cheeses or a crepe making station on the line. The pastry section also seems a little disconnected from the style I recall in France, but my wife and children do not rule that out from finishing with a smile. Overall it has great menu options and is a real step up from a Panera... read more

Once a month I visit La Madeleine with my family. The food quality is excellent, and the menu items are reasonably priced. The restaurant environment is OK sometimes is too busy. The service is far from good. The food service speed is very very slow. They seem to have a hard time cleaning the tables and fulfilling orders. The dishes are sometimes missing ingredients because they run out of them or the cook forgot to add them to the recipe. I get the same thing each visit, and the lack of consistency in the meal preparation is striking. La Madeleine seems to have a lot of restaurant employee turnover that makes the delivery of memorable hospitality difficult to be achieved. The moral of the story is just because the food was good once doesn't mean it will be again read more

As soon as I walked in I noticed a very nice atmosphere and great decor. The food is pretty good but when I got my food it was not hot. The bread and pastries are good and very rich.

la Madeleine - Custom Omelette with butter croissant - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

I've been here multiple times, but this time was probably the most disappointing (though still good!) Foremost, I absolutely adore their desserts, and I recommend them no matter what (their summer parfaits and the mini fresh tarts--around $2 per tart--are to die for). This trip around I came with two friends after a movie. I ordered the spinach pochette, except the woman behind the counter didn't seem to understand what I wanted. It took a while, but I managed to get my food (oddly enough, the actually pochette looks different than the picture on their online menu). Still, it was delicious, so I have no regrets. Our group also ordered their new blueberry creme tart and two different parfaits. All three were absolutely heavenly and only have strengthened my approval of their desserts. The blueberry tart, I think, is seasonal/limited time, so if you stop by this summer, grab it. :) I also recommend all their mini fresh fruit tarts; they're always there, and absolutely delectable. I'll be back some other time, because I can't stay away from this place~ read more

la Madeleine - Blueberry creme tart and two parfaits. Heaven right here. - Bakeries Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

Normal breakfast. French country breakfast is 2 eggs, bacon or sausage (depending which they have available-this day they had no sausage), potatoes (basically Waffle House hash browns in ring but with add scallions and a cold croissant. Also got a coffee. Unsure when walk in door if counter service or table service. Counter service it was, however drink service is self serve. Cashier brought plate to table and that was it, never saw again except at register. Looked at my receipt what the heck am I being charged 50 cents for a commodity surcharge? Nothing stated in menu or that I saw posted anywhere. I do not like add on fees, especially when nothing to advise you if those fees. Should be a sign at door, register and menu. They have a bakery case when you walk in. Stuff looks good but didn't try anything. Do not ask me to tip when I pay unless you are offering table wait staff, tacky. TIPS are To Insure Proper Service, not to check me out at counter or cook my food, your boss should already be paying that wage. It was worthy checking out but for an egg breakfast, it was basically Waffle House but with a croissant. read more

Ordered takeout from here today and made the huge mistake of my checking my food before I left. I ordered two chicken la madelines. They forgot the mushroom gravy for both meals. I also had green beans almondine with both of my orders and there weren't any almonds. I'm very angry that I know both of my meals are now ruined. I'm going to open a can of mushroom soup I already have in my pantry to doctor it up. I live too far away to go back to have it fixed. Oh well. I won't be back for a long time. read more
