Wow. I knew Krispy Kreme was famous but I didn't think it would fetch such a crowd since I figured the health food craze wins it all. But, I guess not.
Having lived in Melbourne for quite awhile, I had Krispy Kreme whenever I want it (slightly exaggerating here). However, in Singapore, it's a total different story. For those who love doughnuts and are unaware of this, well, be excited as the first Krispy Kreme chain store just opened on the 12th of October 2013 right here in Orchard road, Singapore.
On the opening day, there's a sign right outside Tangs as shown below which says - LINE STARTS HERE.
And on the inside, it says.
Unbelievable! The queue was so long that it had to be continued outside. Honestly, I have never seen such a long queue before unless those queuing up for a concert or something, but not for fast food.
Seriously impressed having come from a small Kuching city where Baskin Robbins just opened and even then, the queue wasn't as long as this.
Guess what time the queue started forming?
Answer: On Friday morning at approximately 11.42 am. Please bear in mind that the store was only due to open the next day at 9 am.
The queue inside..
Behold, the various selection of doughnuts. I personally prefer the original ones. I couldn't get close up shots as that means I will have to queue up! And boy, I was not prepared to do so since I have had them before =P.
Anyway, look at those boxes! Hopefully, for those that queued that day, they left satisfied.
What's my opinion on Krispy Kreme? Well, as I am indeed getting older in age, I find it quite overwhelmingly sweet some times. But they are good doughnuts, denser than the rest but tasty at the same time with LOADS of different flavours to choose from.
Give it a try and let me know what you think!
Next on the list, pancakes time!
