Who doesn’t like tasty doughnuts? This past May, we visited Portland, OR for a long weekend with the goal of sampling all the tasty vegan food we could. Voodoo Doughnuts was near the top of the list due to all the positive things we’d read online about them.
While we were walking around downtown, we kept seeing people carrying pink Voodoo boxes. We must be getting close. A short walk from the train, and we were there. The line was out the door and around the corner. They must be popular.
It was quite the scene inside. We waited at the door to be called in to one of the many employees helping customers. There were carts of doughnuts in the back.
Our faces were plastered to the vegan doughnut case. The bearclaw was calling my name. I could almost taste it through the glass. It looked really good.
We exercised a little restraint while ordering and managed to make it out of the store without buying a dozen doughnuts. It was hard!
We quickly sat down outside and ripped open our pink box to eat the tastiness inside. It started to mist, but we weren’t deterred.
The bearclaw was delicious, and it was totally worth the wait. My wife ate her doughnut as well. We saved one for a snack after the movie. The box was a bit unwieldy to deal with, so we put the last two doughnuts into her purse and continued to explore the downtown area.
If you’re in the area, do check them out if you like doughnuts. They are quite good even if they are a bit decadent. Drink a smoothie afterwards to balance it out. ;)
I'm afraid I have to agree about Voodoo Doughnuts! A great place to visit. You showed incredible restraint not filling up the box...
ReplyDeleteI am ashamed to say I still have not ben to VooDoo Donuts. I must rectify that if hubby ever has a day off. He just started 11 days straight between work and Team Oregon.
ReplyDeleteAnd damn I am craving a doughnut now.
