Paczki! They're basically the donuts of the gods. Tuesday is Paczki Day, and I somehow need to get my hands on one, which is going to be difficult since there aren't a lot of other Polish people around here.
What's funny about the local donut shop here in Houston (Shipley's) is that they don't make boston creams.... I was personally shocked the first time I found this out.
back several years ago, me and my friend, stoned out of our gord, decided it would be a good idea to go get donuts at 1 am, as their is a 24 hour shipley's right next to our place... we sat at the drive through for 30 minutes trying to explain to two mexican's that barely spoke english what a boston cream was... in the end when we drove away with a box of donuts we were sorely disappointed that it was filled with chocolate dip and venetian cream... :fp:
Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.
Same. Sometimes I'll switch it up and get a chocolate marble, but vanilla dip is my favourite.
Wouldn't mind trying a Priestly though. It's a chocolate timbit in a strawberry vanilla, and invented by Jason Priestly (as a joke on How I Met Your Mother).

That is a travesty. Any donut shop that doesn't carry Boston Creams shouldn't be calling itself a donut shop.
"...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
"..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

One thing I've always wondered. Maybe our SoCal friends can answer this. Why the hell are there 50,000 donut shops in LA? I know you have a lot of cops there, but that is ridiculous!

Everytime I look at a long john/eclair all I can think about is that bit from Van Wilder....
Those donuts are the best. They bring those into work on Fridays every now and then.

Deerfield Bakery is good stuff.
Country donuts in Schaumburg used to have awesome chocolate mint donuts. Not sure if the County donuts that took over the store is as good.
i've heard it's good, but it'd be out of my way.

I saw that Maple Bacon on TV, it looks amazing. Havent found anyone around here that makes one.
Wanted to go to Voodoo when I was in Portland last summer, it was 9 at night and the line was around the block :?
So, does it have brownie batter inside?
I don't think it has "real" brownie batter inside...no raw eggs or anything..but yes it definitely tastes like brownie batter! Yum!!
