A few friends and I stumbled across this gem because we wanted coffee. Little did I know that just one single doughnut would make me the man I am today.
I think that good doughnuts make good people. If you have a moment, please let me tell you about this simple pastry, and how you, too, can someday feel.
An ocean of mango glaze envelops what would be enough doughnut for two if it weren't so damned addicting. It really is incredible. The sweetness of the glaze is cut magnificently by a fruity tartness. The dough is firm enough to sustain the sizable doughnut and flaky enough to feel light and airy. It's truly an experience.
These donuts are big, but I'll bet you won't want to share. The mango glaze is incredible from first bite to last. A quarter of the way through the experience, a wave of chocolate cream surrounds you. Really. It surrounds you. It holds you hostage. You have made a deal with the doughnut and the only way out is through. Messy as it may be, you have made a commitment.
Your friends may have done the same. You will politely offer bites of your doughnuts to each other and all decline. In this moment, all that matters is what is in your hands. You couldn't possibly cheat on something that has brought you so much joy.
Meanwhile, you cannot help but grab extra napkins from the counter as you realize what you've gotten yourself into. Everyone else is drowning in indulgence and you can only save yourself. So you eat on. Boats against the current. Borne ceaselessly back into the decadence.
This is one of those happy experiences where everyone around you knows exactly how you feel. They, too, are in the middle of something special. So you sip your coffee, which cuts the chocolate cream perfectly. You sit on the long wooden bench opposite the counter. You get lost in the moment until you reach a bittersweet end.
Yes, the doughnut is gone, but the days ahead smell like roses. If you can remove yourself from the nostalgia, new flavors beckon. I highly recommend you come here when you're looking to indulge. I only ask that you go once. You will choose to go back all on your own.
