Last week, I met with Suzanne Ma, reporter for the Associated Press.The subject? DOUGHNUTS.
Suzanne had found me via the NYC Doughnut article I wrote for Serious Eats. We met in the afternoon, at the Herald Square location of one of new twelve Tim Horton's shops to hit the city.
The article, published on Yahoo news, and some other places, is titled "Canadian doughnut chain enters NYC doughnut wars." I'm just briefly mentioned in two paragraphs but there's a photo of me licking away crumbs, holding a bitten iced-chocolate cake doughnut in my right hand, and a chocolate-covered chocolate cake doughnut in my other hand.
TWO KINDS OF CHOCOLATE CAKE DOUGHNUTS.
...you can never have too many...heheh
I'd tell you more about how we sampled twelve doughnuts (including this crazy looking blueberry number) on a Wednesday afternoon, but Suzanne's behind the scenes post on our meeting at, "Fried dough, what’s not to like?” –the story behind the story…" is much more awesome than what I could write...make sure to read it! ^_^
Strangely enough, eating all those doughnuts made me crave malassadas from the Punahou Carnival. Sigh, you can never win ;)
Happy Sunday!

cool pics! congrats!
fun article! I didn't know you're a real estate agent & a pastry chef. Well, you're very knowledge in the 'sweet' department. :)
Hey Kat!
Thanks!
Hey Gar!
Thanks! They made a typo though - I was a pastry cook, not a pastry chef...big difference there, heheh.
Kathy, de-lurking here. Love the article and have been loving your blog for years. Curious - are you really a former Chanel fashion model?
Hey Sara!
Yup - I did runway for them for two years while I was living in Hawai'i :) Now I'm a LOT older and bit chunky, so it's it all food and no more modeling ^_^
Hey Kath,
Have you ever tried the bombolone at Falai Panetteria? Sort of a doughnut, but without the hole...which I guess is what a filled doughnut is!
They're really good.
ciao...
mitch
Hey Mitch!
OH man, I LOVE the Falai bombolonis - I actually wrote about them in my doughnut roundup for Serious Eats -> http://newyork.seriouseats.com/2008/10/guide-to-the-best-doughnuts-donuts-in-new-york-city-nyc.html ...they tie with Sullivan St Bakery for my favourite bombolonis :)
