J.CO Donuts & Coffee @ Raffles City Shopping Centre, Sg
"The Heart of donut lies in its hole. Nonetheless, taste is equally important. Here in J.CO Donuts & Coffee, we value both of them. The making process engages the unbeatable collaboration between high technology machines that create the blissfull, and full-of-art human hands that create the precious holes. It’s always the same hole, same taste, same quality… "
And so i was led here…
After attending Sunday service at Suntec, I decided to drop by Raffles City Shopping Centre with only one intention. VISIT J.CO Donuts ! It had been on my mind lately and i really wanted to try its donuts after reading many reviews regarding this Donut Chain that created a rave in KL. Good, now i don’t need to join in the never-ending-horrendous queue @ Pavillion, KL to enjoy the highly-sought-after donuts.
I wanted to see what’s the rave is all about…
Roommie told me during her previous visit to Raffles City Shopping Centre a couple of weeks ago, she didn’t have a chance to savour J.Co Donuts. The perpetual line never seems to dry up! Phew~ I was early, wasn’t I ? There was only two guys Queueing in front of me and a few more customers behind me. Meanwhile, there were quite a number of tables seated with families and couple savouring their coffee and donuts. It was 11.30am. Snack before lunch? I reckoned.
Left: Why Nut? Right: Don Mochino @ $1.30 each
I bet the waitress disliked me. First, I told her i’ll have 1 Green Tea dine-in. Then i requested it to be changed to Don Mochino. When i reached the cashier, I told her that I would like to have one more donut, Why Nut?, and would like it to be taken it away. Ain’t i troublesome? I just couldn’t make up my mind whether i want to stay out to study or should i head straight back after the purchase. *speechless*
I didn’t purchase their Signature Donut, Al capone, as i was craving for some donuts infused with filling.
Let’s see what it is all about…
Don Mochino. I felt in love at the first sight i laid my eyes on thee. Not your appearance of the luscious chocolate coating, it was thy filling. On the tag, written "…filled with tiramisu cream…".
Yes, i knew it was you that i wanted.
You didn’t disappoint. Coated with mild bitter sweet dark chocolate with coffee-flavoured cream. The cream is very light and not as sweet as those served in Dunkin or Donut Factory. You will not feel a bit of heaviness after eating.
One thing to note. You might not want to attempt to bite this in front of the girl you are interested in. As you sunk your teeth into this, you might ended up with chocolate-coated-brown-teeth unknowingly.
A surprise that delighted the little heart of mine….
Why Nut? My very last minute order. Just because i wanted to take away so i needed to purchase at least two to get it packed in a box.
Premium white chocolate topping with American peanut butter filling. Ooo.. So rich, so satisfying… The white chocolate was a great combination with the peanut butter. The taste of white chocolate was not over-powering and it was a well-balanced taste. Interestingly, the peanut butter filling was not sweet (Dunkin’s was sweet and you get sick of it after one or two bites) and the sight of it oozing out of the donut was Soo…. Inviting!!!
Just when i was thinking of Jollibean’s crispy peanut pancake…
