Doughnut Plant Strawberry Cake Doughnut
I know what you're thinking; that I eat way too many doughnuts. But listen, you only live once! And since the new Doughnut Plant location at the Chelsea Hotel is incredibly close to my apartment, I'm free to munch on as many as I want.
I'm partial to cake doughnuts and the seasonal Strawberry Glazed cake doughnut has a really pretty color. It's not strongly strawberry, but it's sweet and fruity. I'll be back for more.
I also sampled the Oatmeal Doughnut. It had a really intriguing appearance with all those oats coating the glaze. I can't say that it was one of my favorites, but it is touted as the "healthy" doughnut. More than half the doughnut is supposed to be made from oatmeal, which probably makes it more appealing to some. But it's my guess that if you're going for a doughnut break, you probably already threw health concerns out the window.
Doughnut Plant. 379 Grand St, New York, NY 10002 & 222 W 23rd St, New York, NY 10011.

Jacques Torres Chocolate Chip Cookie
Speaking of chocolate chip cookies, Jacques Torres makes my favorite! It's simply scrumptious. And extraordinarily full of chocolate, which I love. The chocolate almost seems to be methodically and liberally layered into every cookie's chewy and satisfying dough. And I'm not surprised that the chocolate is given a starring role. That is to be expected from Mr. Chocolate himself.
Tip: Oftentimes, they will serve the cookies to you hot and be sure that they do. This only makes them more incredible. And you can't go wrong with one of his rich hot chocolates, either. Hot chocolate aside this cookie: a match made in chocoholics heaven.
Jacques Torres. Various locations.
