krispy kreme in manila

as a blue-blooded foodie, i am always on the look-out for updates of my favorite (and not-so-favorite) haunts.

among them was (operative word, was) krispy kreme, which was (again, was) a heavy favorite of mine some years back. it is opening its first branch at the fort (hah! in your face competion with gonuts donuts) next month, and a second one at the megamall by december.

i can't say anything about the timing other than 'it sucks' mainly because here in california (specially in LA), krispy kreme stores are closing. and they are closing fast and sales remain to be in a downward spiral. oh how the mighty has fallen.

i just read this now and for some reason your blog page was stuck to friday the 13th for the better part of the month.

anyway, no. mangosteen jam is not readily available anywhere. sometimes they have it at market! market! but not even a whole boxful. but most of the times no. hence am going to davao to get some. hahaha. and eat durian and marang and mangosteen.

and since it's mangosteen season, hopefully by december there's a new big batch of jams for sale.
