A dangerous, but utterly fantastic place! - Dangerous, because you run the risk of getting fat…read more Fantastic, because it's like a miniature version of custard heaven. The patisserie/bakery is part of a little Portuguese ghetto - with the Lisboa Delicatessen shop right across from it and a little Portuguese stationary shop right next to it. Don't expect anything posh or fancy - it's a down-to-earth bakery, where real people eat real custards, so to speak. In order to make the best out of this place, I suggest two options: 1) You come here on multiple occasions, as there's so many different things that will tempt your palette. You simply can't eat all of it in one visit, but you simply have to try most of it! 2) You talk to your bosses and persuade them to host a Portuguese Happy Hour - that way you can buy a variety of lots of different pastries and you get to sample a lot! (This was the option that I went for.) I really love this place - but I suggest you come by on a non-weekend day, as the crowds are simply off-putting.

I have to say, I was a little disappointed. Not with the donuts - they were perfect. Not with the…read morestore - the service was great. My disappointment lies with the British. I brought two dozen of America's greatest export and for most of the day, they sat uneaten! A meeting with my peers and colleagues in London, I figured I would bring a treat. A dozen regular and a dozen assorted. Let me tell you, it was a hassle to carry that box on the Circle Line from Paddington to Victoria. Somehow, the boxes managed to survive without casualties and made it to the conference room table. They did eventually get eaten (I had only two all day), but it wasn't until the afternoon coffee break that the consuming hit its stride. By 6:00 PM, they were all gone, but it was a close call. Donuts? Big in America. Not so big in England.

These glazed babies are gorgeous - but I can see a lot of dieters wincing at the thought of the amount of fat and sugar in one of these. Sugar ranges from 10g to 30g and fats from 13g to 19g per doughnut. Ouch. But they taste great and look so pretty. That's excusable enough for me. Krispy Kreme *drool* also does decent coffee and iced drinks.

After viewing some of the offerings in the window such as the Gordon Jamsay and Watermelon Sugar High we had to try a few donuts.
