There are holidays to politely ignore, and holidays to shamelessly embrace. This Friday's NationalDoughnut Day is clearly the latter. Pay your respects to the sugar-coated national treasure at one of thesefine LA dealers.
Despite its white-linened polish, this refined Beverly Boulevard institution shows an unexpected (yet completely understandable) affection for doughnuts come dessert. On the big day, the special will be Malted Milk Chocolate Doughnuts with Earl Grey Caramel, Crème Fraiche Strawberry Ripple Ice Cream and Toffee Peanuts.
If you have to multitask this Friday—you know, enjoy the festivities while firming up your latest blockbuster—end the power meal with Glazed Doughnuts with Tangerine Marmalade, Vanilla Custard and Chocolate Pudding.
If you didn't already book your NDD reservation last month, you’ll just have to arrive early for a seat at the first-come, first-serve bar. To finish: the Bombolini—think warm doughnut holes, Italian-style—with Huckleberry Compote and Vanilla Gelato.
When picking up doughnuts in Beverly Hills, you should expect a bit of extra bang for your buck. Frittelli's comes through with current specials like Dulce de Leche and Piña Colada doughnuts. Really.
The Westside institution isn’t just for you—they'll FedEx their famous Peanut Butter Donuts anywhere in the country overnight. So you can help your favorite non-Angelenos celebrate the holiday as well. After all, what does the doughnut represent if not unity?
