Re: “Donut Savant

This may be the best donut that I've ever eaten. This cute shop, demurely situated between a falafal shop and a junk store, and conveniently at the mouth of a 19th St Bart station entrance, keeps me always wanting another. Firstly, the donut I can only describe as "cake" but it doesn't leave that heavy, "why did I just eat that" feeling in your stomach. It only leaves you wanting more! A sucker for chocolate, the first donut I had was the chocolate glaze. Unlike the Krispy Kreme, or Dunkin' style glaze, Donut Savant has a thick, Julia Child-style dark chocolate ganache spread atop each cake donut. It is unreal how delicious it is! The other styles and flavors I have tried are similarly delicious. I can also attest to the delightfulness of the seasonal pumpkin donut.

Re: “PIQ

This place is just like the cafes in Florence. The food is superb! The coffee is fantastic! And I'm not even a coffee drinker. I'm totally hooked.

Re: “Cinnaholic

When I first passed this place I was drawn inside by an overwhelming fragrance of cinnamon. I was able to create my own cinnamon roll with decadent caramel frosting and then topped with chocolate chips and cookie dough... Wonderfully "CINNFULL"! I go back all the time now. You should go!

Re: “Cinnaholic

Just go here. Seriously. You can't possibly go wrong.

Except with the mint icing. That was a little weird. But hey, there's a billion flavors and toppings to choose from, so you really can't go wrong. Old skool rolls are my favorite anyway. I could eat a million of them. So just go here and keep this place open, because FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS OR ISN'T HOLY, Cinnaholic is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me.

These rolls seriously ROCK.
