No way, I have to go!<BR/><BR/>Archana: Happy to give some good food memories!<BR/><BR/>Geggie: Yes, I think Sedutto merged with a bigger company and moved. So strange because even though companies change and "aren't the same" there's something comforting still in some ways. Strange phenomenon...<BR/><BR/>Nicisme: It's like being in a sugar shock here!<BR/><BR/>Curly: Ohhhh don't even get me started on Little Pie and Co.; I LOVE THEM! I was so bummed that they closed their 9th ave / 14th st. location.

Hopefully it keeps the commute sweet!<BR/><BR/>Blognut: I know the scones you mean! Just close your eyes and they're delicious, but I am pretty sure that color doesn't occur in nature. <BR/><BR/>Familia: Bummer, you missed out!!! Luckily you can still visit! <BR/><BR/>Slush: You too have made a great pitch on the Krispy Kreme--maybe we just haven't had the "right" ones yet! <BR/><BR/>Ann: Thanks! And it was so rad going to the 'Burg with you. BTW that brownie...to die for.<BR/><BR/>Mallow: Isn't it funny how that works?

This statement no longer holds true with me. There is nothing, I mean nothing better than a glazed doughnut, hot off the line from Krispy Kreme. It has to be hot.You have to go into an actual Krispy Kreme to have this supreme doughnut. The rest of the doughnuts KK sells are equal to the Dunkin Donut line. But the hot glazed doughnut from KK is the one doughnut to rule them all. <BR/><BR/>(If you have only had KK is gas stations, then you don't understand the real deal.)slushhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03345724556216377946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-88015322856523253572008-02-08T07:06:00.000-08:002008-02-08T07:06:00.000-08:00I'm so jealous!!! I lived there for 5 years in my 20's & I was too obsessed with my weight to appreciate all there was out there being offered. (Ironic, now!) I'm lov'n your post on NYC.

Krispy's way too sweet and hides crappy dough behind lots of goppy stuff. <BR/><BR/>And I always have the "chain" reservation about Au Bon Pain, but they're orange scones are out of control, albeit sort of disgustingly fake orange colored.blognutwww.theblognut.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-34827265873769991322008-02-08T06:41:00.000-08:002008-02-08T06:41:00.000-08:00I am, in fact, one of those dashing commuters! This is a terrific guide to the sweets of Penn Station, and a good reason not to scurry through like I normally do! I'm printing it out, and tucking it in my bag.T.W.

My boyfriend doesn't like doughnuts either way, and even though Dunkin Doughnuts is closer, I would prefer Krispy Kreme any day of the week. While DD is more of a cake-like texture, KK is light and fluffy and that fattening glaze is to die for. :)Emilyhttp://emielli.tblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8554049149798699784.post-89414573262629928832008-02-08T05:54:00.000-08:002008-02-08T05:54:00.000-08:00You nailed Hot and Crusty. The displays always look great, but leave me a little disappointed when actually enjoying my snack on the train back home. I fear that with the Little Pie Company, Grand Central has the better baked goods offerings!Curly Glamour Girliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05717489841193840610noreply@blogger.com
