“Whether you call them bizcochos, bunuelos, sonho, roscas, or sopapillas, donuts are universally loved! That is why Miguel Guerra (father) and Miguel Guerra (son) are teaming up to re-create the special Latin American donut pop-up shop, which has been a nationwide hit in Colombia, Donisima.
“I am very happy to team up with my dad in this new culinary project,” said Miguel Guerra. “We wanted to do something different and special yet highlighting our cultural roots. Donuts are comforting, tasty, and as varied as people are, so we thought this would be fun. Our small batch process allows us to concentrate on taste and play with more creative local and native ingredients and flavors. These donuts are one-of-a-kind.”
Currently operating in a ghost kitchen in the Union Market District, Donisima is a modern artisanal donut shop taking the classic donut to a completely new level. The donuts are made with the finest ingredients and feature pleasing designs. The pastries will come in different varieties including cake, brioche, crullers and many more.
Tempting options paying homage to Latin American regional flavors and ingredients include: Read More
Next time you’re at the Looking Glass Lounge at Georgia and Princeton I insist you get this. For $6 get a Berry Shortcake made up of raspberry, blackberry, whipped cream and a fresh biscuit. I don’t even really like desserts and I ate it in about 32 seconds.
