Donut Hunt

The K11 Mall, in Tsim Sha Tsui (TST), is quite unique because it melds the shopping experience with an art gallery viewing experience...


…there are the staple center pieces, such as "The Root" (pictured below), as well as the current exhibition of the summer:  Obsession… 


…but, we weren't here for the art or the shopping…we were here just looking for a bit of afternoon tea…


…which is where we found some donuts (I've been thinking about them recently!)…


…At La Creation de Gute, we picked a little assortment of pastries to tide our tummies over until dinner…

The newly promoted fruit infused raspberry bun, a mochi puff with cream filling, a mini cake, and a flower donut with chocolate glaze and sprinkles 
 …There was also, CONVENIENTLY, coffee available at the till, though we opted out as coffee isn't much of a necessity in the summer months as it is during the fall...


 Though I haven't really aggressively been out hunting for the BEST DONUTS in Hong Kong, I was surprised to find them so casually stocked at La Creation de Gute.  It sort of reinvigorated my desire to search and destroy some donuts this summer.

Who knew that a passive look here and there could lead to so much more!?

By the way, the donut was all right.  It did wean my empty stomach's grumbling, but it wasn't anything spectacular.  It was, as I would rate the TSA, satisfactory.
