Yes, Oliver Twist sprang to mind.
How he would have killed to be me. Or one of the millions of others who have tasted this holey sin.
You can't miss nor resist the brightly colored neon-lights fronting the store, the simple yet boldly endearing sign, the satisfying faces of stuffed patrons, and not least the long queue of eager yet-to-have-climaxed Malaysians, all clamouring for the latest morsel to arrive that had boldly claimed - in your face - to "melt in your mouth."
Its Krispy Kreme folks!!
With the first store opening just yesterday in prime location @ Berjaya Times Square, we in Malaysia are finally blessed :P
Though avoiding the crowd and potentially one month of free doughnuts by skipping the opening, I made my way there the very next day! Sean popped along, and we went to see (and experience) whether all the fuss and hype of its innate superiority to the J and Apple varieties held any truth.
They have this funky machine known as a 'proof box' where heat and humidity is set and where the doughnuts go on a 20 minute oscillating ride to allow the dough to rise!
They're then dropped into a hot oil bath, cooking both sides before passing through a tantalizingly gooey glazing waterfall! *drool*
Hehe, well I couldn't take 'em all because I was rushed out of the line to pay up and get out :(
Trekked back to Pavilion to enjoy our gems, toying with the prospect of going into J.Co's for a drink while eating these beauties :P
Sean had a tough time picking the first one... they all look so good!
The New York Cheesecake was sublime!
The cheesecake filling was topped off with cream cheese icing and graham cracker crunch: a beautiful start to this forbidden relationship. My favourite so far :D
I have indeed climaxed.
And it seems to be contagious...
