People may call it a donut truck, but really Gourdough’s is much much more. It’s a peek at what they serve in heaven.
In heaven and at Gourdough’s, donuts aren’t just donuts. They’re decadent, over-the-top dish creations where toppings ranging from fried chicken and pudding to oreos and fresh fruit are heaped up on top of a perfectly fried and fluffed chunk of bready donut and then covered in cream cheese, chocolate, peanut butter, or jam. In heaven, donuts require forks, knives, and one’s utmost respect.
I repeat, Gourdough’s is no ordinary donut place. To perhaps put it in better perspective, take my friend Max. Every time we visit the South 1st food truck pod in which Gourdough’s resides, he talks in length about how his younger brother has it better in life because he discovered Gourdough’s secrets earlier in life. Max is 19.
This holiest of places is my guiltiest pleasure. I’m not proud of it, but there have been numerous occasions when I’ve visited the Gourdough’s website when I’m down or deep in procrastination mode. Just glancing through the picture posts of over 20 of their inventions is sometimes necessary for me to continue with my day.
I would recommend a donut, but there is literally one for every type of person and they are literally all perfectly capable of being someones’s favorite. I think if I even tried to name my favorite, I would just keep changing my mind or making it a list. I won’t try.
Word on the street is that Gourdough’s is expanding and opening a real brick-and-mortar restaurant on South Lamar. I shall be there on opening day, come join me.
