    I love TI and would choose this hotel over several others!Ferf Krispy Kreme is up the stairs in the gift shop next to where you get the tram to Mirage!

    Even though I haven't posted for a while I have been reading along however it is making me feel very jealous as we haven't booked yet and don't know when we will get to go as OH is waiting for an operation but we don't know when.

    You might have made yourself forget haha.

    Yes, as said it's upstairs. I probably wouldn't know about it if we didn't use the Dollar car rental desk most trips. I think it used to be a full outlet but now it's part of a small store that sells drinks and some souvenirs I think as well. They have cabinets right up the back. As I say though I have to stay away!!! Our nearest at home is Edinburgh so about 70 miles away, but they don't sell my favourite anyway, I like the devil's food one. Mmmmm.

    Ferf if you have rented from Dollar there then you would have walked past it every time
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    yeah - thinking about it now I remember it...at first I thought it was an actual KK place that was being mentioned but understand now. I think we normally get our fix at Excalibur. We do have one about a 20 minute drive from us now at home as well, but they don't sell either of our favourites.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Jealous! Hubby's favourite is the glazed cruller and mine is chocolate with creme (not custard) filling.

    Hope you are having a great trip!

    I remember going to the drive through/eat in stand alone in Enfield when my son was living in the area.

    There is one in Selfridges in Birmingham, you stand in line and they just come along giving out glaze donuts for free. Never stopped us buying a box of 12 to take home though

    I enjoy baking and this got me curious. I managed to find a really good Millie's cookies recipe online and have made them a few times. I wondered if there might be a Krispy Kreme recipe. At around 400 cals a pop this is probably a really bad idea...

    The tescos on my way home from work has a KK cabinet so the shine of KK has been taken off somewhat. It won't stop us buying a box of 12 when we happen to be passing the stand in The Excalibur though ;-)
