Doughnut Plant



Doughnut Plant was another recommendation from my Aunt and Uncle. Except, I had already put it on our list of things to see. There was suppose to be line-up, just like Grimaldi's from the other day! Luckily, we went early enough before any line-up started. We were really lucky. After we got our doughnut, the shop filled up pretty quick.


Doughnut Plant
379 Grand Street
New York, NY 10002
(212) 505-3700

They're on facebook and twitter too!


Here's a list of their featured doughnuts of the day. They have different types of doughnuts for you to pick from: yeast, jam, and cake. We really wanted to try the crème brulée one, but we were told there would be a 30 minute wait. We should have waited for it, because in the end, the store we were going to next wasn't open until noon!


Since my brother didn't try the cupcakes on this trip, he got to choose a doughnut and he picked...


The vanilla bean doughnut! I took a bite and it was pretty good, although I would have liked to try a flavour we wouldn't find in Toronto. Next time, I'll come with an empty stomach. I really shouldn't eat breakfast before heading out, I get too full and don't get to try all the neat things we see.


This is where we sat and watched the crowds come in. =)
