Yes, this is me trying another donut place. My kryptonite. But, I do have to admit, the only reason I tried this place is because I really didn't have any breakfast in stock at my place. So, I used it as an excuse to make the trek (20 minute drive from my place). A small side note from someone's previous review, this is not right off the 215 & Lake Mead. One still has to travel about 2.5 miles east to reach the location. This place is in a pretty large building with a lot of parking. It also has a drive-thru. I placed my order online through their website and it was already boxed up prior to my arrival. I only got 2, trying to keep my slender figure, the Blue Suede Banana and the Tiramisu.
The Blue Suede Banana is filled with peanut butter banana creme, covered with southern chocolate ganache and topped with honey fried banana slices. Now, this was a good size donut and it didn't skimp on the filling. It was also very fresh. Although it did state that there was some peanut butter in it, the banana overpowered any of that. But, it was still good. The Tiramisu donut was a mix of coffee, cocoa, mascarpone cream and rum espresso. Again, this was a big donut, with a lot going on. When I went to take a bite, the cocoa really hits the sense. But, it also seemed to have some sort of cinnamon aroma, which really caught me by surprise. Maybe it was just me. Similar to the banana donut, the creme filling, which actually split the donut was plentiful. The mascarpone wasn't as strong as one would expect from a standard slice of tiramisu. But it was still creamy and had a good flavor. One thing that really wasn't needed was the little "shot" of rum espresso. It was in a little vile, pressed in to the donut. Just seemed kind of irrelevant.
This place, based solely on the 2 donuts that I had, would definitely rank as one of the better donut spots in Vegas.
