I always thought their East side location choice was emblematic of some poor business decisions: in the parking lot of Defined Fitness. Maybe others are less affected, but I just couldn't get myself to swing in after a good workout. It was like you were throwing the workout away. That said, I had no issues swinging by the west side location, and I'm glad they worked things out. I think the '0 carb' craze that was the 'diet of the moment' was a factor last time.
I will always think of the APD heli incident when thinking of the West side Krispy Kreme. I know there was a big hulabaloo about it, but I personally thought it was funny. They were at the end of shift and just decided to drop in for some KK.... literally. The 'Burque Journal was classic the next morning: A Bell Jet Ranger with a giant underslung doughnut photoshopped in. Ahhhh, Albuquerque!
My son did the happy dance last night when I told him the news. He'd been asking on and off for months if they were ever going to open again. I too feel like I need to start doing laps around the track at Cibola to make up for the doughnuts that I will soon be consuming.
As the saying goes, "A moment on the lips. A lifetime on the hips."
This makes me incredibly happy. I've been here a year and have been in absolute despair of ever having a good donut again. What's up that Albuquerque has no good donut shops? Cupcakes galore (don't get me started. . .), but no great donuts.
Krispy Kreme is a start, but seriously, someone open a donut shop!
