Chocolate-filled doughnut
ADVERTISEMENT
The key to enjoying this doughnut -- or any -- is temperature. Cold: chunky pieces of hard chocolate inside dry bread. Hot: The chocolate burns and the bread crisps up. 20 seconds in the microwave is ideal.
On the bready side, but fans of chocolate will be pleased.
For: Rs 40
At: Biona, 7, Hill Road, Bandra (W).

Smiley doughnut
Smeared with shiny sugar icing brightened with a few drops of sunshine, this doughnut is really a sweetened bun generously flavoured with cinnamon. A great way to spruce up a dull day!

They make just a few, so get there in the morning to avoid disappointment.

Doughnut holes
Wonder where the bits of leftover dough punched out of a doughnut go? Candie's wants us to believe they go straight into the frying pan. Once cooled, seven or eight are placed inside a small plastic bag, tied with a rubberband and then proudly displayed inside glass counters.
For: Rs 30
