We find ourselves in a 49th Parallel Coffee + Lucky's Doughnuts location
because of the 2023 Hot Chocolate Festival. So, of course, we tried two of
their donuts: Vanilla Old Fashioned and Vegan Triple Chocolate. We also
ordered two savoury pastries (Savoury Scone and Pistachio Almond Croissant)
because it's breakfast, and I don't want all sweets.

Vanilla Old Fashioned Donut
Vanilla Old Fashioned is crispy on the edges and with a slight vanilla
sweetness. I prefer this to the Triple Chocolate Donut. I love the difference
in texture with the soft interior and crunchy exterior.

Savoury Scone
The Savoury Scone is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. It's
filled with peppers and celery. It's pretty good. I wish they warm it, though.
It reminds me of pizza's saltiness - cheese and deli meat bits.

Vegan Triple Chocolate Donut
Vegan Triple Chocolate is not sweet but has an intense chocolate flavour. Its
consistency reminds me of a brownie or a really dense chocolate cake.

Pistachio Almond Croissant
The Pistachio Croissant is flakey and buttery. I was not getting any Pistachio
flavour... until I reached the middle. There's filling inside!

It's fun to hang out at a coffee shop surrounded by delicious pastries and
discuss expenses with my husband.
