Doughnut Plant is one of those institutionalized donut places in New York City. Between Dough and this place, it’s really difficult to go wrong, and each person will have their own preference. I remember what was unique about this donut place was mainly their flavors as it was unique and different. The size of the donuts are not as big as Dough, but they are almost as puffy and airy.
Food
Yum! I’m not generally a fan of doughnuts, but this was delicious. The left is passion fruit flavored, and the right is rose flavored. Here in Los Angeles, we don’t typically don’t have these kinds of doughnuts as most doughnut makers opt for the standard glazed with coffee, chocolate, vanilla, or cream / fruit filled.
The passion fruit doughnut by far is my most favorite doughnut of all time. Imagine a Krispy Kreme out of the oven but with passion fruit flavors on it. The flavor wasn’t that sweet (I’m not a sweets person), and the dough they use is pretty damn good. The rose petal I didn’t care. It tasted exactly how I thought it would taste like: a flower doughnut.
Final Verdict
Love it! The creme brulee! The cake donuts are whatevers, but the yeast ones are good. I still love Dough more though.
Price wise it’s a tad expensive. For those 2 doughnuts and a small bottle of whole milk, the total was around $8.50. But hey, I was still happy.
