Donuts Galore

When visiting Portland Oregon, if there is one thing you cannot pass up, it would be the donut shops. 

After trying to figure out which ones we were going to go to during our short time there we decided Voodoo was too famous to not go to, and Pip's. We decided on Pip's because they looked so sweet and small and delicate. We were also going to try and squeeze a third donut shop in, but unfortunately it wasn't possible.




VOODOO


Voodoo Doughnuts has some of the most beautiful, artsy, humorous and delicious doughnuts that we've had. They are very decently sized and very decently delcious! They have one of the best maple bacon Doughnuts out there and plenty other delicious ones to choose from. This is a must stop if you are in Portland, Oregon.



As you can see, this Choclaty fella may look mean but oh boy, was it delcious! We weren't even completely sure if this donut was going to have filling, it did not have filling but it DID NOT even need it! it was delcious exactly the way it was. The donut alone without all of the Choclate was cooked to perfection but the chocolate was a sweet plus to something already so tasty!


Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a doughnut straight out of a cartoon? Well, at Voodoo Doughnuts you can do just that, by ordering their famous Homer Simpson Doughnut! when you receive the doughnut it appears just as it does in the Simpsons franchise. Not only is the appearance of this legendary treat spot on, but the taste is unbelievable! The doughnut alone is as tasty as you would expect but the strawverry frosting gives it such a flavor that you can only find at Voodoo Doughnuts. No wonder Homer's mouth is always watering! 



PIP'S


Pip's Doughnuts also located in Portland, Oregon is very different from any doughnut place in the United States. We love eating outside of the box and we were surprised to find out that this place was very unique and different from most doughnut shops.

We were lucky enough to go there on Seth's birthday so we were gladly given a free birthday dozen on the house! They had many special flavors, and they were all delicious. as you can see Nutella plays a big role at Pip's Doughnuts!

The assortment of flavors of these tiny doughy creations was phenomenol. The bacon doughnut was filled with what appeared to be bacon jam and it was unlike many doughnuts you would find. There was also a couple of different doughnuts that all had Nutella incorporated in them and each one was very sweet and tasty. The cinnamon doughnut was also great, especially for the fact that it was so simple.




Portland, Oregon knows how to make doughnuts, that's for sure. Both Voodoo and Pip's positively impressed us. We know that if we ever come back to Portland we know where we are going to get doughnuts!

Until our next food review! TASTY!

Bourbon, burgers, and Bar Louie!

This restaurant may sound familiar to some. We've eaten here before and have never been disappointed with the food or service. Stop into Bar Louie for some great food and and a great late night type of atmosphere, or maybe just after doing a little shopping in the mall.                   Bourbon Bacon Burger Just by looking at the special limited time menu of this burger and many other special sandwiches alike, we knew this burger would be incredibly flavorful. A beautifully cooked meat patty deserves nothing better than a beautifully crafted sauce and delcious toppings to back them up. A perfect meat patty topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, a delcious bourbon sauce and a nice stack of fried onion straws... It's making my mouth water just thinking about it... Unsurprisingly, the look of the burger was astonishing. The juicy patty had a decent portion of crispy onion straws that make the presentation really stick out. The first bite ...

Noodlecat's Dream Buns

If you're strolling through downtown Cleveland we hope you stumble into Noodlecat . Located on Euclid Ave, you will be surrounded by a few different popular restaurants, don't be shy! Try them all! From our experience you can't go wrong. Noodlecat serves up three main options noodles, buns, and veggies. Unfortunately we did not come for noodles on this visit, we came for the Japanese Steam Buns! We picked 2 of the 5 bun options they had available and went with the J-fried Chicken bun and the Fresh bacon bun. These Buns are Japanese white bread sandwiches each topped with lettuce and pickle. For the J-fried Chicken Bun, this soft steam bun has a piece of fried chicken, sweet and spicy power ketchup. At first bite you're in love. The fresh steam buns are amazing. The chicken was crispy, tangy, and delicious but it was no match for the next bun that we tried! The Fresh Bacon Bun was filled with a delicious slice of lightly smoked, sugar ...

Tasty Tidbitt meets Tasty Made

Being owned by Chipotle, Tasty Made is a new burger joint with their first location being built in Lancaster, Ohio. So for the simple fact that we are Ohioans and Chipotle fans, we were very excited for this review and to be one of the first food blogs to review the Tasty Made restaurant. To start off, the decor and atmosphere of the restaurant is much like a Five Guys restaurant with a lot of red and white. It's not really what you expect when you think of Chipotle walking in. The menu was very small which isn't always a bad thing in a restaurant, especially a new one. There is nothing worse than a menu that is simply too large. The menu is basically the Tasty Made Original Burger, Cheeseburger, Hamburger, fresh made fries, milkshakes and sodas. All of the burgers can be ordered with an extra patty, called a double. We decided we would go with their signature burger, which is a meat patty on a bun topped with lettuce, tomato, pickle and their bacon sauce. The ...
