Voo Doo Doughnuts: The Magic is in the Hole!
After hearing rave reviews about this little hole in the wall dough nut shop, I was eager to give it a try on our trip to Portland. Voo Doo Dough Nuts specializes in vegan dough nuts and other eclectic creations, such as the Captain Crunch pictured here. Although there was little seating to speak of and the drunk throwing up on the curb outside made me a little wary, we were not disappointed. Fluffy and sinfully delicious, these creations can be hand picked from a revolving glass case like works of art on display. It's hard to try just one, but I can vouch for the Fruit Loop and Maple Bar. Yummy. They also serve fresh, hot coffee in carafes from the famed Stumptown Coffee shop just down a block. And best of all, open 24 hours a day.
