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’…

B’More Licks: Diablo Doughnuts: A True Story of Beauty and Obsession
Welcome back to my donut diaries. A raw collection of my innermost thoughts and feelings on life, love and the pursuit of donuts.

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…
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…

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.

Sidecar Doughnuts: The World’s Fre$hest Doughnuts
I owe it to my followers (all six of them) to scope out the local doughnut scene wherever I travel, be it the coffee shop around the block or a supermarket across the country. For stop number two on my California donut adventures, I zeroed in on the Sidecar Doughnuts flagship store in Costa Mesa….
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…
