    I would eat most of a twelve dozen box and some kolaches when I was obese. I could have eaten the thing in one sitting but the rest of the family would take their donut or two.

    I'm terribly picky about donuts. The chains just don't do it for me. I grew up with jelly 'beignets' in France and it's been hard to find something as good.

    But Donut Plant in NYC is seriously fantastic. I tried the hazelnut and the creme brulee ones and they were incredible

    And a salted caramel donut from a local donut shop that opened two months ago. I've tried three of their donuts so far and they are delicious.. so light and fluffy.

    Strange Donuts in St. Louis. That is all.

    Just went there two weeks ago, loved the salted caramel and the gooey butter cake donut!

    Also putting a vote in for Round Rock donuts!

    Nope, if it's a donut, it's gotta be this one. It's been on food network.

    Este. Everyone else in this thread is just wrong.

    Though it wasn't in my heavier days, but in my marathon runner/triathlete days when I had a super high metabolism, there was this small little shop near my office that sold apple fritters the size of my head and I would get one at least once a week.

    This probably needs to go in the confessions thread on the other board...

    I never cared for Krispy Kremes.

    Maple Glazed Cake Donuts FTW!!

    I completely forgot I recommended that place. I'm glad you went and enjoyed it

    My only regret is that I couldn't try one of each!

    That's how I like mine. ONE box at a time.

    Best doughnuts I ever had were at some fancy brunch place at Williamsburg. Right next to the omelet station there was a chef standing there at a fryer, cooking up fresh yeast doughnuts and dropping them right in to a dish of cinnamon-sugar, still hot and shiny from the fryer.

    Holy hell, they were delicious.

    Unfortunately, I haven't had much chance for donut places in my area. All the "better" donut places around me are open terrible hours. What my taste buds are currently getting is making them very happy, but of course I'm open to all possibilities, and I want to try everything. OveralI, I am a satisfied donut eater.

    If you're in Williamsburg during Hanukkah then you could probably get an awesome Sufganiyot. Now those are amazing.

    MMMM. Yes. I consulted Google and apparently the Williamsburg Lodge is still doing on-the-spot doughnuts as part of the brunch buffet. ~plans vacation solely for food~
