First things first, doughnut fans: It’s time to announce the winner of Monday’s bout. By a wide margin, the Palm beat out Poste to go on to round two of our March Madness-style competition. Be sure to follow along at home with your brackets. At the end of this journey, someone is going home with a $50 gift certificate to the winning fried-puff purveyor.
But first: another faceoff. You’ll recall that last week tiny Migue’s Magnificent took on the global powerhouse Krispy Kreme and managed to walk away with a win. Let’s see if neighborhood favorite Al Dente—soon to welcome a little sister restaurant—can continue the streak as it takes on the giant green mermaid. Al Dente serves nugget-size holes called bombolini along with gooey chocolate dipping sauce, while Starbucks stocks full-sized pastries as well as the addictive (and adorable) bite-size rings known as “minis.”
