I always get jealous of all you bloggers who talk about Dunkin' Donuts, because up until earlier this month, we didn't have any in California (or at least anywhere near SoCal). We used to, but for some reason they all closed decades ago. So to my knowledge I'd never experienced they hype. And then one opened in Santa Monica and everyone within a 100 mile radius went insane.
I waited a few weeks for things to cool down, then finally made the 50 mile drive yesterday to get myself some of their coffee and donuts. And then my dreams were crushed.
There was still a line that wrapped around the building and we waited for about 40 minutes, only to be disappointed by both the donuts and coffee. I'd heard the latter was what people really enjoy about DD, and maybe my problem was that I got an iced latte instead of traditional coffee. The donuts were OK. The frosting was great, but the dough is thick and harder than I expected. We have Krispy Kreme out here and I'm used to their light, melt in your mouth goodness.
Maybe DD was just having a bad day? Or are they way overrated?
