Doughnut Plant

Doughnuts...... Y-U-M!!!!!!!!!  I loooooove doughnuts.  And since seeing the Doughnut Plant featured on Food Network I knew I had to try them!  So one morning we headed out to check out the Highline Park in Chelsea and knew we would be close to their location in the Chelsea Hotel so we planned to check it out!  The decor was SO fun, the selection of flavors available was awesome - so awesome it made it very hard to decide!!!!  We ended up picking 4 donuts that we cut in half so that we could try all 4 flavors.  Good decision!!!!!  We tried Vanilla Bean, Triple Chocolate, Black Out and Salted Peanut.  Each was as fabulous as the next.....but the Black Out doughnut was the stand out for me.  We both LOVE chocolate and this doughnut was a chocolate lovers dream, yes even after trying the Triple Chocolate. ;)  It was so moist it melted in your mouth.  Have you seen that show The Best Thing I Ever Ate on Food Network?????  If I were on one of those episodes I would certainly mention the Black Out doughnut from Doughnut Plant.  Simply amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

They actually have 2 locations in NYC.  The original location is 379 Grand Street, between Essex and Norfolk and the Chelsea location is 220 West 23rd Street, between 7th & 8th Ave.  And certainly if you stop at the Chelsea location be sure and check out the High Line!  

 

  

Now, there is just 1 more thing I HAVE to share.......a little secret if you will.  Not only do they have amazing doughnuts at the Chelsea location......they also have the most awesome bathroom I have ever seen.  Yes, I know how odd that sounds.  But when I entered, I stood still in amazement at how awesome it was.  I almost didn't believe it was real.  =)  The walls were mirror tiled just like a disco ball.  And if you know me - you know I looooove disco and even have a few disco balls around my house.  I looked up to the ceiling and sure enough they had a spinning disco ball.  It was the coolest thing ever!!!  So cool I took pictures of a bathroom.  I went back to the table and told mom she had to check out the unique bathroom.  Afterwards she then knew why I was in there for so long!  Haha!!!!
