It’s Doughnut Day!

It’s National Doughnut Day!

What started in 1938 as a depression era fundraiser for the Salvation Army.  So this Doughnut Day, surround yourself with those you love and a fine assortment of fried dough to celebrate friendship, camaraderie, and a love of exceptional tasting treats!

Although Las Vegas is full of a wide variety of dining establishments, finding good doughnuts surprisingly isn’t the most simple task.  Here’s a handy guide to getting the good stuff on the strip and off.  Not in Vegas yet?  Find a cheap flight to Vegas and get ready to eat!

On the Strip Doughnut Locations:

The Bouchon Bakery located in The Venetian offers doughnuts inspired by French pastry chefs with impeccable taste and class.  Enjoy the local favorite Boston Cream doughnut.  Three kiosk locations inside the Venetian (two in the clock tower and one in front of the Venetian theater next to the sister resort The Palazzo) offer you plenty of pastry consuming opportunities.

Krispy Kreme has become a doughnut staple.  Known best for their simple (and simply irresistible) glazed doughnut, there are multiple Krispy Kremes for your doughnut needs.  Awesome perk- these strip locations are open 24 hours allowing you to satisfy your doughnut craving no matter what time of day.
