Flipped Doughnuts
Doughnuts • Coffee • Chicken
by Dina Scaglione
As you enter Flipped Doughnuts and Coffee, you’re immediately greeted by a sign that reads: “Good Things are Coming.” That’s an understatement of what you’ll encounter when you sit back and enjoy Dana Point’s newest artisan-style eatery and its trendy, laid-back style, befitting its Pacific Coast Highway location at The Row.
As the new kid on the block, Flipped is committed to delivering the freshest and most delicious doughnuts in the world. After one bite, you’ll agree that these artfully crafted and creatively designed delights will have you quickly rethinking your go-to maple glazed old fashioned. Each doughnut is made from a traditional cake-style batter foundation with playful twists and thoughtful ingredients incorporated to create savory treats like the Blueberry with Almond Streusel Cake, Maple Bacon & Cheddar and Crème Brule doughnuts, just to name a few.
My personal favorite is the Brown Butter Cake Doughnut, made with buttermilk and cinnamon, then crowned with a crumbly cream cheese topping – talk about moist, light and melt-in-your-mouth goodness. The newest addition to Flipped’s menu is a Strawberry Butter Crunch Doughnut with pastry cream. Think Strawberry Shortcake with a deliciously creamy filling. Beyond heavenly!
If salty-sweet is your weaknesses, then you must try Flipped’s Waffles & Fried Chicken breakfast sandwiches. Tender strips of made-to-order fried chicken are nestled between two crispy waffles, along with a fried egg, sliced bacon and Japanese mayo. Be sure to add a side of signature seasoned fries, served with an assortment of 7 dipping sauces — including garlic jam, spicy ranch and sweet and spicy.
And, of course, nothing goes better with doughnuts than a satisfying cup of freshly brewed coffee, espresso or cappuccino. Try Flipped’s own signature blend, made from the highest quality Arabica beans, roasted each week to retain its complex flavors and freshness. Shakes, smoothies and a variety of teas are also available.
