Foodie adventure: The Donut Man (Glendora, CA)
I've heard about an urban myth about donuts the size of a baby's head being sold in Glendora, especially during strawberry and peach seasons. Humongous donuts are supposedly filled with fresh strawberries or peaches to lines of folks. So, I had to check it out.
Driving along the old Route 66 in Glendora, I knew I found the spot with this sign and the lines of people ordering donuts.
I ordered a few strawberry donuts (which really are the size of a baby's head), an apple-filled donut, and a maple donut bar (with the length of my forearm). Don't worry, the order wasn't for me-- it was for my sister and her family. I was tempted to get a cinnamon roll donut but decided to practice some restraint. Next time, my love, next time. I'll be back when peaches are in season.
Oh, and I also loved the customer service. They were super friendly, sweet, and hilarious. That kind of service is a rarity these days.
