On Friday morning we got out of work extra early--- 5 am and went in search of a place to have breakfast to celebrate the end of our 54 hour work week. The only place we found open was a Waffle House that had been a major disappointment a few weeks before so we kept looking.
Finaly we decided to just go home and have pancakes but on the way I remembered a bakery that I'd seen when we went a different way home. What a treat!
It was a real bakery with a nice man in white baker's clothes helping us buy too many fresh donuts.
We bought a variety of donuts and decided on the following ranking
6. A cake donut covered in chocolate. Rather disappointing and we didn't finish it. Shocking, I know.
5. The cronut (combo of Croissant and Donut). It was okay, but compared to the others, it fell short.
4. Cinnamon Sour Cream Donut----this would probably get a higher ranking if I'd gotten more than a few crumbs. But Chris enjoyed it.
3. Blueberry cake donut. Yum! Nice and dense and cakey.
2. Maple cake donut with frosthing and nuts. Heavenly.
1. Giant apple fritter. So fresh!
Honorable mention: Homemade crackers called Firecrackers. A little too spicey for me to have more than a couple, but like the Cinnamon Sour Cream Donut...I didn't really have much of a chance anyway.
There aren't many donut shops around anymore where they make their own. And, I agree, Waffle House is awful. We ate at one once, and we do not want to repeat the experience. - Robin
