Recent winner of Blue Ridge Food Venture’s Big Tasty, Vortex Doughnuts started posting pictures of their doughnuts over the weekend on their Facebook page and damn does their doughnuts look sexy! Vortex Doughnuts has yet to pick a location for their shop, so you can’t try them yet. But for the love of humanity let’s hope they pick soon!
Let the Doughnut Porn commence (Bow chicka bow wow):
Paris of the South, a chocolate cake doughnut with a chocolate ganache topping, topped with buttery-toasted City Bakery baguette and a piece of French Broad Chocolate with a hint of coffee.
Raspberry Goat, a cake doughnut with raspberry-goat milk glaze, raspberry reduction, milk-raspberry crunch, and marsala-sugar crystals.
The Ring of Fire, a Polish doughnut (Paczki), filled with an apricot-caramel-red chili peppers. Tart, Sweet, and Hot.
Also according to this Craigslist posting a specialty mac’n cheese restaurant is coming to Asheville. I cannot express enough my love for mac’n cheese.
It is a good thing I’m currently on a diet, because I see my stomach growing with Asheville food goodness in the near future!
