To our delight, there was a Voodoo within walking distance of our hotel in Portland, OR. So, early(ish) one morning we headed there to pick up a selection. The shop itself was pretty cool and the doughnut options bewildering.
It would have been very easy to buy a dozen or more, so we gave ourselves a strict limit of 4 - which we planned to eat and subsequently rate over a few days.
I definitely wanted to try the Maple Bacon, and the Miami Vice Berry was a special edition, so we got one each. The menu being so vast, we asked our server to select two of his favourites, and the foursome was completed with a Homer and an Old Dirty Bastard.
If you're into watching people stuff huge sugary food items into their gobs and giving feedback through half-full cakeholes, check out our video below:
The Homer is called that because it mimics the donuts widely seen (and eaten by Homer) in the Simpsons.
ReplyDeleteGood reviews, although Lee popping during a review is not something you usually get in food reviews!!!
Matt Groening grew up in Portland, and many PDX landmarks have made their way into the show (Quimby, Flanders, Burnside erc)
DeleteI didn't know that and assume that you did a little research for that little fact ;-)
