Whilst driving through life, I noticed stores by the appellation of Dunkin’ began soaking up the roadside real estate faster than a biscuit in coffee. What ever could this noun-less, transitive verb be referring to? Upon connecting the donut holes, I experienced a maelstrom of emotions; It was none other than my arch nemesis, Dunkin’…

Vaccaro’s Bakery: An Unholy Donnoli
Since becoming a Master Sommelier in Italy this past September, I have come to savor the tasting notes of every item I eat. A sandwich is more than a sandwich in and of itself; it is an amalgamation of cultures over time that have adapted with modern food consumption trends to become the American sandwich…
Danny’s Mini Donuts: What is a Donut Anymore?
I had a disconcerting experience during my recent trip to Sacramento, and I feel my meditation needs to be addressed immediately, ahead of all my other scheduled content. The focus of this article is to discuss and assess what elements constitute a donut these days, and if there are any guidelines remaining as to what…
Portland, Maine
Ladies and gentlemen. What I bring to you this month is the trip that gave me the final push I needed to start my blog, presented in a four part series: Portland, Acadia, Cape Breton and Halifax. I was inspired to write about my trip through Maine and Nova Scotia because I am a couponing…
Dough Doughnuts: 6 in 60 Challenge
The morning of March 23, 2018 started out like any other: I listened to Go Flex by Post Malone as I got ready for work; I hop, skipped, and jumped to the train station; then I proceeded to eat a hefty piece of green tea swiss roll cake for breakfast. And then another Entenmann’s mini cake…
Donut Crazy: Ivy League Infatuation
Ah, Connecticut. I’ve always wanted to go to ‘the state that’s full of surprises’, but I’ve wondered, after the Beluga Whale Exhibit recommended as the #2 attraction on Google, what else is there to do? Well, be warned, Connecticut is quite a devilish little minx of a state. This quick trip turned out to be quite…
Randy’s Donuts: LA’s Hottest Icon
A little over a year ago, I started to vocalize my theory that one day, one day very soon, cows were going to take over the world. My bovine conspiracy theory began to rapidly gain support, and after a few articles, speeches and screenplays, I had a small but fierce cult following preparing their futures…
Krispy Kreme: The OG Glazed Donut
During my Christmas vacation 2017, I managed to stuff my face at three different donut locations in just ten short days. I am truly my own biggest inspiration. I was in California for less than twenty four hours when, while last minute gift shopping in Mission Viejo, I saw a Krispy Kreme sign calling to…
Brewnuts: Donut Mess with Cle
Sometimes the food world tries to put two very opposite but respectively awesome things together to make one super-mega awesome dish. But two incredible flavors don’t always guarantee a tasty lovechild. For example, chocolate on a pizza. Or a peanut butter cheeseburger. Ice cream and lobster? Bleh. Beer and fried dough? Surprisingly, a donut hole…
Holy Donut: There’s Nothing Potatoes Can’t Do
As a self-proclaimed and locally recognized connoisseur of doughnuts, I’m always looking for the latest and greatest flavors to wow my cat socks off. On my fall trip up through the Northeast coast and Canada, I descended upon the Holy Donut in Portland, Maine. When I heard they make their donuts using potatoes it wasn’t…
