The Serious Eats National Doughnut Honor Roll
The warm, cream-filled brioche doughnut LAMILL COFFEE (1636 Silver Lake Blvd, Los Angeles) is an LA thrill comparable to David Lynch's Mulholland Drive. Hours after you're done you're still thinking about it, still trying to figure out what it was. The doughnut does not seem quite large enough to hold all that pastry cream filling. Maybe there is magic in those specks scraped from Madagascar vanilla beans. The fact the LAMILL serves great great coffee makes this the ultimate donut experience.
Best Coffee in New York City?
A vote for Grumpy with a very honorable mention for El Beit. I had a single original Ethiopia Sidamo cappuccino at El Beit and its aroma suggested that of a blueberry muffin. The truth is, there may be more good coffee places in Williamsburg, Brooklyn than there are in all of London, England.

Last bite on earth:
When I asked that my bespoke burger be prepared medium rare, the server asked me if I knew what rare was. She understood that most of us are accustomed to getting medium-rare when we ask for rare and medium or medium-well when we ask for medium-rare. The Counter is that rarity: a burger joint that knows what rare is and gives you exactly what you asked me, even if that isn't exactly what you're expecting. To The Counter's further credit, its emphasis on groovy toppings is not executed at the expense of the meat's quality, quantity or crucial diameter-to-thickness ratio. Even plain, this is about as good as franchise burgers get.
