I have made it my mission to try to get to as many of my bookmarks in the area as possible. Today I found myself at 808. Malasadas were sounding pretty good for lunch, so I decided to give them a try.
I ordered the red velvet filled with macadamia nut cream filling. I also tried the regular malasada filled with guava. This one was a little on the dry side, not as fresh tasting as I had hoped. I definitely preferred the red velvet. It had a nice texture and I really enjoyed the filling. I'm don't usually like filled donuts, but this was a treat. It was the perfect texture and wasn't too rich. I also got a spam musubi to fulfill my savory quotient for lunch. Honesty, the only reason I ordered it was because they have a $5 minimum credit charge and I just was slightly short.
The guys working there were friendly and efficient. I wouldn't go out of my way, but they're worth a try.
