“Dough” Licicious!

Always Room for Desert…JXN. Donuts. Bootstraps Mtg 008.resized

Airstream Trailer eateries may be old hat here in Austin, TX, but apparently there is room for one more as Gourdough’s Donuts is nothing less than Briliantly Unique.  My sister and I deemed it a “Gourmet” if ever a Donut could be.

Each made fresh on the spot per order, this real estate broker, Paula Samford, has done donuts “proper”. Inspired from hours on end of unsatisfied cravings due to touring with clients and showing homes, Paula ,with the help of family and friends, developed and created the extensive three foot tall menu that rests perched upright against the silver airstreem parked in the gravel courtyard along South Lamar.

We ordered and devoured the “Funky Monkey”, a Banana’s Fosters  meets beniet style Donut. Don’t you worry about those trepid sticky fingers, this $3.25 sweet treat can surly satisfy up to three or four mouths each, or just keep it all for yourself?!

Just across from Alamo Draft House, we both thought it would make excellent for an after movie date…can’t wait for mine!…again :)

Enjoy!

    “Palmer – are you the one who sent the info on the Austin donut shop? If so, I forwarded it to several people and promptly deleted it. One young man has taken at least ten others there and he has been five times in five visits into the city,. He is moving there next week and is worried about how often he might just have to go to it.”
