My brother and my cousin spent like 5 hours queueing for donuts. What? For those freaking donuts, I would have just settled with Jollibean snacks. The queue is so long and they met a couple of mean people. They got too impatient and start making a fuss around. Not exactly the shopping experience you would expect in Raffles City, not the experience you would expect on Easter Day too.
And they brought all the donuts home and I tried a few. They’re nice but then… Well, I guess I’m not too into donuts. I don’t find them particularly special. (Yes, I followed the instruction to microwave them for 8 seconds.)
Oh no, the donuts are half eaten before I can take a picture of them! The others seemed to appreciate the donuts. (Oh man, I think I microwave 10 seconds, I knew it – must be the 2 second difference!)
The donuts are good, but not worth queueing for 5 hours. The longer people queue, the more they would buy to increase the ‘worth’ of their purchase. Maybe one day, I would too open a donut shop. Any name suggestions? I was thinking of something original like iDonut, Donut King (just afraid of the Donkey Kong association), McDonut and Donut 360. Other suggestions welcomed too.
Okay – 4/5 happy? I would queue for it still though. Haha!
[By the way, something unfortunate happened. One of the boxes got invaded by this donut-loving lizard. My mum threw away the box, much to my brother's dismay.]

by Kahseng (May 5, 2007 at 5 PM)Yeah, the chocolate donut is very popular though. I don’t think you would ever want to queue up for it. I can’t believe donuts can be so popular.
