At Donut Villa Diner, doughnuts are the name of the game, and it’s not just serving them straight up. You can get a cheeseburger on one, a breakfast sandwich on one, even eggs Benedict on mini versions. In other words, if you’re looking for inventive combinations, you’ll find them, but I can’t say I’m particularly drawn to the idea of eggs on a doughnut, so I tried one of the pastries in coconut cake. It was covered amply in coconut shreds, which I appreciated, and they were affixed with a glaze that actually made them stay on, which I extra appreciated. The doughnut itself had that perfectly tender crumbly, cake texture and was just the right amount of sweet. It was slightly dry, as if it could have been taken out of the oven just a few minutes sooner, but overall, this was a solid treat and I would happily return.
