Today is somewhat of a short post. Don’t get me wrong – it’s not a knock on the restaurant in question – Duck Donuts. On the contrary, I love Duck Donuts and would go back in a heartbeat, but 1) it’s just been a LOOOONNNNGGGGG work day and it’s only Monday with 4 more days to go and 2) not a whole lot in the spice arena, but one I do want to make mention, as it was a good experience!
As I’ve written before in my mother of all pro-tips and since alluded to several times in other posts, spicy food offerings can be found in the most unusual of places – TO THOSE SEEKING THEM OUT! In other words, you have to be proactive and look and not just expect that things will just fall in your lap. However, on occasion, things will fall in your lap when you least expect them. And this is what happened with Duck Donuts.
For a sweet tooth (such as me, to an extent, but my first love is always the spice!), Duck Donuts can be a Seventh Heaven. With its decadent offerings and the ability to customize and make your own donuts (just like pizza), anyone with even the slightest inclination for sweetness will go GAGA – and I am no exception. I loaded up on their Salted Caramel, Cookies & Cream, and plain Glazed. But wait- there’s more! I also ordered an egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches with hot sauce! Being vegetarian, I had them make it for me without sausage or bacon.
Was it one of the best spicy sandwiches I’ve ever had in my life? No, of course not, and I was never expecting it to be – with a name like “Duck Donuts”, I knew going in that hot and spicy dishes were not their specialty. Nonetheless, I was pleasantly surprised. Having well done eggs and a slice of cheese in between a sliced glazed donut, all with a side of dipping hot sauce (resembling either Frank’s or Texas Pete) was a unique, but well-done combination. Provided me with the best of both worlds – sweet and spicy!
And while, Duck Donuts will still be my go-to place to satisfy my sweet tooth for a weekend morning fix, I know I can still grab something to fulfill my first love!
