Canadian Invasion

Tim Horton's has invaded New York City. 13 shops have opened up, replacing some of the Dunkin' Donuts that have proliferated in the past year or so. Ironically, I think that most of the DD's that have been replaced are some of the older ones, at least this is the case with the Tim Horton's that has opened up near us. There has been a DD on Broadway between 95th and 96th for many, many years. Then in the past year one has opened up on Broadway between 96th and 97th AND another up on 98th Street or thereabouts. Well, the old DD is now a new TH.

Saint Jerome and I decided to test the waters (or should I say coffee) this morning on our way to Fairway. We each got a small coffee and Saint J got a sour cream glazed donut and I got a Maple dip one. Yum, yum! We each had to get another donut. I tried a Honey Dip and Saint J got a Maple one. We ate, drank and then started on our merry way.

It was a good thing that we were walking down to Fairway which is a good mile or so away because, though we weren't walking enough to burn a whole donut, we decided we were de-glazing the span at least. So much for our post-Buffalo dieting.
