I suppose it makes sense that doughnuts are going gourmet, since cupcakes have gone fru-fru.
I had lunch at The Gage in Chicago, and they offer a signature "Coffee Stuffed Doughnuts Espresso and Crunchy Coffee and Hot Fudge" dessert. It was pretty darn good! The doughnut holes have a surprise in the middle - (gourmet) lemon filling! The sauce was ok (I'm not a coffee fan). The doughnuts themselves are light but chewy (not the uncooked dough chewy...the I want to have chewy carbs type of taste). If I posted this on Facebook, I would have "Like"d it.
I also ordered a "Market Fruit with Curry Biscotti". The fruit was fresh and sweet and the mascarpone cream cheese was perfect. This is a perfect dessert for those who want something healthier than doughnuts. Sorry, the biscotti isn't pictured because they forgot about it. But it tasted just like any ole biscotti.
