Should you ever find yourself in North Cambridge, not too far from Davis Square and the Arlington border, I strongly recommend a trip to Verna's.
They're a little hole-in-the-wall, but they make the best donuts around. I've been going since I was tiny. My dad would take Dewey and me out for a chocolate honey dipped and an orange juice most Saturday mornings when we were little.
(the chocolate honey-dipped are still my favorite)
Anyway, I recommend that you get a dozen. Include a couple of coffee rolls, even if they're not your favorite. Someone will like them.
Then, find a couple of friends and a good place to sit. (You may need to drive. Or you could walk to Davis.)
Coffee's a pretty good thing, too.
Then you should eat the donuts and be happy.

Oh that is my absolute favorite kind of donut! Do they make the donuts there? I work right near Alewife, so I'm close by. And you can hardly find a place that makes fresh donuts anymore. Yum! You're making me want to venture out into the storm for one of these :)
ReplyDeleteThey do make the donuts there! Right in the back! It's well worth a trip. They're absolutely the best I've ever had.
Deleteyes! I've been here. Just once. I LOVE that your dad used to take you. I want that for my family, I want Joe to take Lux to donuts on the weekend. The best kind of treat. I wanted the interior to be just a tiny-bit more photogenic, but oh well. They were delicious.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness. MUST GO!!
ReplyDeleteHow can you not be happy when you eat donuts??... yum! :)
ReplyDeleteHUH. WHAT. I WANT ALL OF THEM. okay, you've sold me. one (worth it, it seems) carb coma, coming at me. can't believe i haven't been here yet!
