Doughnut is one of those deep, childish
pleasures one never grows out of. It may not be much to look at, but under that
coated exterior is rich and inside the soft dough lays a sweet secret. Encouraging
one to play a mindless game of locating the filling entry point before biting
into it and experiencing the delight of the exact location is a happy surprise
to the eater.
My hubby and I were driving down Church Street
on late Sunday evening and we noticed a big Krispy Kreme neon sign. Such
coincidence is rare as earlier the very same day we had been out to visit
relatives and caught up with an aunt of mine from California, USA. In the
normal course of conversation she casually opined that the Doughnuts from Krispy
Kreme are the best confectionaries she ever had. Never having tasted this, I wondered
when we can get a bite of such delights in Bangalore. Come evening, we continued
our outing by wandering aimlessly in one of the busiest shopping streets and
surprise - Krispy Kreme had launched its
first outlet at Namma Bengaluru on 19th Jan 2013.
My sweet tooth almost always gets the better
of me even though I try to be conscious of its impact. We quickly rushed in the
store and found the menu boasting of many treats and the counters was filled
with many colorful and different shaped Doughnuts. I happily chose Classic
Glazed Doughnut with cinnamon while my hubby selected the Chocolate Doughnut
with roasted almonds for himself plus a blueberry filled doughnut to share.
Believe me, one bite of the glazed doughnut and I was swimming in a sugary
cloud. It just melted in my mouth – it was that lite, soft and yummy.
These tender pillow-like doughnuts would be an
ideal dessert after any meal especially after a weekend breakfast. If one is in
the mood for delicious doughnuts and a hot/cold beverage - I would highly
recommend Krispy Kreme – Bangalore. The ambience is good, pricing is reasonable
and it’s 100% vegetarian, but finding a good parking space in Church Street is
a pain so plan accordingly!
