Trying a New Donut Spot

I follow this person on the social networks who posts a bunch of stuff about top food spots in the OC. Today they posted these delicious looking Samoas donuts! If you don't know what Samoas are.. they're one of the yummiest cookies sold by The Girl Scouts. Anyhow, I really wanted to try them so after work today we headed over to DK's Donuts to try 'em.

We got there and we were already a bit disappointed. They were cash only! Ugh.. who carries cash with them these days? Luckily, there was Chase ATM nearby.

The second disappointment? The cost! I looked at their menu and saw that all the donuts we wanted to try were considered gourmet, which meant they went for far more than the standard donuts. If we bought a dozen, it would've been close to $20! That's when we decided we'll just buy a half dozen. I also saw that Yelp gives you a free Red Velvet donut per purchase if you check-in. After picking our donuts, we were salivating to try them, but we decided to wait til we got home. I was super excited!

Can you tell? Haha. Can't wait to get home and eat these!

4 of our 6 chosen donuts..

The Samoa

PB Oreo

Nutella Strawberry

Nutella Banana Cream

The other 2 donuts were the PB&J and the Caramel Apple and of course the free Red Velvet.

And now to our third disappointment. They didn't taste good. Definitely nothing close to as good as the donuts from Donuttery! In fact.. the PB Oreo one was downright disgusting. It was so bad that Jeric didn't want the rest of it! He's never ever ever not finished a donut! Luckily the rest of the donuts weren't as bad, but not worth the price. At least, not in our opinion. The bread/dough was very typical. Like something you find at any other donut shop. Totally nothing like the gourmet donuts from Donuttery. Those ones were so delicious and cake like! Very moist and yummy!

Oh well. At least we tried it. But unfortunately, we're not buying these ever again.
