"But some of us don’t have the patience to wait for hours just to eat raised brioche. That’s where General Porpoise comes in. The donuts at this coffee shop are much more readily available, but convenience is not their only selling point. The vanilla custard is so rich that it could stand in for crème brûlée filling, and there are often seasonal variations that we look forward to, like peppermint bark in December or summer fruit jam when the thermostat turns up. Grab some for the office before work and be hailed as a hero with impeccable taste." - Aimee Rizzo, Kayla Sager Riley
