| - I was super excited to try the new donut shop, Darling Donuts. I saw that for opening week they were giving out a free donut. Free food, I'm totally in! Sadly, it was not a great experience. Granted it is probably my fault for going in the evening after I got out of work, but the place was deserted aside from the one lonely, clearly bored, employee. The donuts definitely did not look fresh anymore. The glaze on top of them was cracking, a the tell-tale signs of sitting out too long, but the guilt of walking out with nothing from a new and empty business convinced me to continue on anyway.
It was incredibly difficult to order for the sound from the TV was so ridiculously loud. Add that to the fact I am pretty short and so was the employee, we had to try to talk through the donut case since neither of us were tall enough to talk over it. (I definitely do not appreciate the height of their donut display counters.) Lastly, the one lone employee did not seem to know how to work the register very well so she asked to ring my card again because a receipt didn't print out. Sure enough, when I checked my bank account, I was charged twice. Not cool.
When I finally tried the donuts that night at home, they seemed a bit stale as predicted. When they are fresh, they probably taste much much better but I can only say they were average at best and that is being nice. They are a decent size and priced alright but overall the whole experience was pretty darn disappointing, darlings.
