After receiving a tip from a friend of mine (what up Jenny) and her father (Dr. Ajl), I ventured out to this lower east side place that does doughnuts only. That's right: doughnuts, not donuts. I had asked them some of their favorite food spots and this was one of the first one's they mentioned. Although on a peculiar block, this 'plant' is quite unique. With a very small and narrow ordering section, the majority of the property is devoted to the preparation and baking. With flavors such as cranberry, tres leches, and roasted chestnut, one would hope so. I decided to order the 'blackout choclate and 'creme brulee'. Although I was not blown away by them, I enjoyed them very much. I could tell that they were carefully made and contained flavors that DD can't even dream of.
The prices aren't cheap but I believe, although it may take awhile, once you find your flavor, it will be worth it. Next up for me shall be the 'peanut butter glaze' and the 'tres leches' Or the Valrhona chocolate. Or the Coconut...
