Marcial Kobe

After lunch at Kyomomoya, tay went to the basement there to buy donuts, Marcial Kobe - its mini (small ring size) donut.

Plenty of varieties to choose from, dozen small size donuts for $4. Tay xuan took a bit of this and that, never really notice what favour he choose. Tried a few and they were quite okay, like all donuts, after eating fried stuff very thirsty. But the donut-craze that is going on is n’uff reason for the crowd buying donuts. Donut shops are springing up like nobody business, from the popular donut factory at city hall, Vinco the donut parlour at Vivocity, missy donut, yummy donut, Dunkin Donuts, just to name some of the more prominent ones.

Doughnuts The Next Big Thing?

By Melissa Pang - Jan 21, 2007 The Sunday Times

"A LONG line forms every day at Donut Factory in the basement of Raffles City.

Customers wait for up to two hours for the shop’s freshly made doughnuts - deep-fried yeast pastries glazed with chocolate, filled with kaya or topped with fruit.Call it pent-up doughnut demand - the shop was swamped shortly after it opened in the middle of last month

The pastries are mixed and cut by hand, then fried in a machine. After that, they are decorated by hand. The result? Light, fluffy doughnuts which are a contrast to the often heavy ones found in Singapore bakeries.

After coming up with a winning recipe, he customised flavours for the Singapore palate. So alongside bestsellers like Double Chocolate, Glazed and Strawberry White Chocolate, he has Wasabi Cheese and Kaya White Chocolate.There are signs that his doughnuts might trigger yet another Singapore food fad, which has seen people here going gaga over bubble tea, Portuguese egg tarts, buttery coffee-glazed buns and apple strudel."

Do you rise each morning and make love to your favorite sweetie? Per chance, would your sweetie be filled with sugar and have a hole in the middle? If so, you are not the only donut lover in the countryside….

The problem - or should I say ‘problems’ with donuts is that they are filled with sugar, fat and calories and simply put, we are what we eat. Cramming your favorite sweetie down your throat translates to sugar, fat and calories inside of you.

Donuts Sugar Raised - Calories 340

Walking - with dog 252 calories in 1 hr

Thats hardly enough to burn the calories of eating ONE donut. Imagine eating a few donuts at one go.

Stay away from me, you evil donuts. Shoo!

Say NO to donuts, YES to a better life!
