http://www.bobsdonutssf.com/ Bob’s Donuts is a small shop on the side of Polk St. in San Francisco. I almost missed it looking for the name on a sign (it was at night that I first visited (03/07/2017)). However, I didn’t miss it with the big windows lit up with fluorescent lights and giant donuts on display. […]
A rare old-fashioned donut for me. In fact, I couldn’t remember the last time I had one. I did have this donut after the Chocolate Frosted with Sprinkles, and I have to say that I liked this one more — though, it wasn’t by much. I appreciated the slight crunch of the old-fashioned while the thinner dough make-up downplayed the otherwise cake/ dough taste. That, and the added sugar glaze was welcomed — again, as a way to downplay the otherwise doughy taste.
The staple of every donut shop aside from the glazed, Bob’s chocolate frosted sprinkle donut was just as simple with nothing extra. The donut was surprisingly dense in sprinkle coverage. It was a good snack, but as the first donut to be reviewed on Mmm Donut, can’t say it’ll be long remembered for its taste.
