The Law of Donutgeering also known as LODG is a donut shop in Jersey City that opened in March 2020, few days before the you know what hit the fan with COVID-19. When we visited them a couple of months go, they were still standing, glad to have made it through and determined to continue on that path. The owners, Edward Alfonso and Flavia Carballo are respectively from Cuba and Argentina and so, decided to infuse some of their background into their donuts. So, do not expect to have classic ones. And, last thing before I talk about the donuts: Edward has a Master of Science degree in Biomedical Engineering, explaining the theme and the nod all around their shop with books and other science artifacts.
So, now, the donuts: they are large, packed in flavor and they even propose vegan donuts. Their menu will change often, so the ones below are probably not going to be there if you decide to try, but they will give you an idea of the kinds they propose. Here is what we had:
The pig and the fig: maple bacon and fig on a yeast donut filled with cheesecake.
Monkey <3 Nutella: a yeast donut stuffed with banana mousse and covered with Nutella.
Butter Snow: creamy butter sugar glaze on a yeast donut.
El Gauchito: dulce de leche and pineapple.
The Law of Donutgineering is an interesting place where you would not get your classic donuts but more creative ones that would make you excited. They yeast donut is quite good, chewy and not doughy and the fillings fun. I’ll definitely be back to try others!
Enjoy (I did)!
