What We Love: Discovering New Spots
February 9th, 2012Over the weekend, my friends opened their donut shop named Gavino’s Donuts at the newly opened Madison Square on Granada St., Quezon City (if you’re coming from Ortigas Avenue, just work your way towards Gilmore Avenue and look at the right side of the street!).

The store Gavino’s was named after their firstborn son—a two-year-old cutie pie named Gavin (sadly, he wasn’t around when we visited!). I’m sure Gavin’s mouth would water if he saw the donuts selection his parents prepared for the store.

(Top) A bevy of donut flavors! (Left) Glazed and gummy bear-topped donuts. (Right) Chocolate and bavarian cream-filled mochi donuts.
It was a blast sampling the flavors while sipping a cup of Brazilian coffee (yum!). The pancake-like batter gave the uniquely-shaped donuts a chewier texture, making the experience belly satisfying (haha!). My top three picks from Gavino’s Donuts are: Chocolate Krunch (it had chocolate icing and rice krispies on top!), Ensaymada (sweet + salty = knockout combo!), and Glazed (an understated classic).
I also enjoyed hanging out with my friends at Gavino’s Donuts because of this little angel…

Avery is less than two months old, but she already gets to go out with her mom and dad. She’s such a darling, and I was so happy to meet her for the very first time.
I hope you and your friends can drop by Gavino’s (it’s in the same complex where the new McDonald’s and Sumo Sam are at) to try their one-of-a-kind donuts. And while you’re at it, why not play some boardgames found inside the shop? We didn’t have time, but I sure would have wanted to play Pictionary or Monopoly Deal!
Maybe I’ll run into you there? ![]()
