I know, I know. I said that I don't want to be at The Curve anymore but sometimes, really, people has no choice since we're all in this big tank of glue (jiang hu) haha.

Anyway, after lunch nutty & loony were looking for something sweet to munch on the other day. Ok, fine. Not so much of 'looking for' there since Nutty had been going on & on about how she really need a donut during lunch.

So they went to the Big Apple Donuts & Coffee


and ordered a 1/2 dozen donuts, 2 cups of tea.

from top left - top right: dark chocolate, ice frost
from middle left - middle right: bananarama, mango
from bottom left - bottom right: almond, peanut butter

To our delight, the cuppa actually came with 1 glazed donut! Ok, ours were 1/2 glazed really.


So how does the donut compared to Dunkin Donuts?
Better than DD I swear! The first bite was already infectuous! It was soft, fluffy, light & not too sweet. And they have many other flavours too! The MUST TRY are:
- Mango
- Dark Chocolate
- Bananarama (chocolate + banana)
- Peanut Butter (nutty whacked 2 of those in a go!)
- 1/2 Glaze
(sorry, I don't really remember their names)

Got a chance to talk to the friendly boss who's lounging outside his shop. According to the good ol'chap, he flew to US all the way to learn how to make donuts & when he came back, he opened the first & ever Big Apple Donuts shop here at The Curve.

So How Do I Rate It?
Food? 4.5/5 (The donuts were EXCELLENT!)
Beverages? 3/5 (Normal lah.)
Service? 3/5 (Quite OK.)
Price? 3/5 (1/2 dozen of RM9.90)
Promotion? A cuppa FOC a donut!

Go try it! Then tell me if you still prefer dunkin donuts. Nutty is obviously very happy with the donut hahahahahah

 Rude service @ J.Co Donuts.
Friday, 27 June 2008 - Written by AJ
I went to J.Co at Pavilion Bukit Bintang this afternoon (27.6.2008). Never been to it before so I thought I'd give it a try. I was served by one of the counter staff, a Malay guy. For no apparent reason, he put my box of doughnuts down and left it there. After a few minutes, I asked another counter staff, a Chinese girl, about my box. This Chinese girl was really rude to me when she replied to me so I left without bothering to buy the doughnuts. You can bet your last Ringgit that I'm never going back there again - better to eat roti canai and teh tarik from mamak or eat at Dunkin Donuts than going to an overpriced doughnut shop with rude staff.

To me, all donuts look alike, hehe. It's the matter of the taste!! If it is real good, for sure people will go back again. 
 
I agree that Singapore should have something like this, a donuts shop or cafeteria.

Say.. anyone knows if Krispy Kreme is coming over to Malaysia anytime soon?

 What a Rip-Off
Monday, 17 September 2007 - Written by guntareek
I doubt he learn how to make doughnuts in the US.... 
 
Big Apple doughnuts is a Rip-Off of JCO DOUGHNUTS - i first discovered this JCO doughnut shop in Bandung, it's everywhere in Indonesia and it's THE NUMERO UNO doughnut shop in Indonesia, with Krispy KREME come in 2nd. Dunkin' Doughnut was not even on the list. 
 
Big Apple's Doughnuts has the EXACT DOUGHNUTS as JCO. EVEN the LOGO, PRESENTATION AND SHOP SET-UP ARE TOTAL COPY OF JCO! To compare with Krispy Kreme (KK) doughnuts, JCO & KK even has different presentations and donuts. 
 
WHAT A RIP-OFF!! JCO is opening soon in MIDVALLEY! More info & Proof.... http://www.jcodonuts.com/

heyya, want to tell you that big apple is not from America and is rip off. You might wanna try the original franchise (that Big Apple copied) Jco Donuts which is going to open soon at the new shopping mall in Bukit Bintang, Pavilion this 20th September. check out the website- www.jcodonuts.com

yeah! It's really nice! haha. Really? No sit-down areas for donuts? That's really too bad. But if you come down to KL, and if you're a big fan of donuts, should really try this Big Apple out & see how it compares to dunkins. :)
