Some days, the only good part about waking up is that you\u2019re one step closer to breakfast. Do you love piping hot lattes coupled with a chocolate donut? Croissants and orange juice? A smooth, blended iced coffee and a hearty bagel? <\/p>\n

Of course you do. <\/p>\n

That’s why today – on International Donut Day – I’d like us all to take a moment to ponder the wonder, the beauty, the immaculate perfection that is Dunkin\u2019 Donuts.<\/p>\n

Aside from having some of the best coffee and iced coolattas in Lebanon, DD has another sweet spot: pastries. First there are the perfectly fresh and fluffy donuts. And really, I think we can all agree that it’s impossible to go wrong with this. Have you ever had a donut you didn’t like? <\/p>\n

I love the classic glazed donut. I love the perfectly chewy and airy vanilla donut with just a touch of powdered sugar on top. I love the decadent Boston cream-filled donut with rich vanilla custard filling. I love it all. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And here’s another thing I love about Dunkin’ Donuts: the bagels. Now, it’s actually kind of difficult to find decent bagels in Lebanon. It’s just not something we do. You can find Kaak<\/i>, Manakeesh<\/i> and other warm, fresh breads for days, but bagels – not so much.<\/p>\n

And the variety, oh the variety. Plain, multi-cereal, poppy seed, sesame bagels, the list goes on. Pro-top, fools: fill that bad boy up with some delicious cream cheese or a hearty portion of turkey and cheese. This will hit the spot every time \u2013 chewy, delicious, perfect.<\/p>\n

With so many delicious options and so little words to drool with, leave it to the good people at Dunkin\u2019 Donuts to add one more thing to the equation: a heavenly selection of croissants. Take your pick between a plain, a zaatar, or a chocolate croissant. Another option: go rogue and have all three.<\/p>\n

Of course, that\u2019s not where the true magic lies. You can experience heaven first-hand by ordering a croissant sandwich. Consider it the grand meeting place for two of the most incredible things food has to offer: sandwiches and croissants. Load your favorite pastry up with turkey, cheese, or eggs and let the journey begin. <\/p>\n

Dunkin Donuts won\u2019t leave you; it won\u2019t neglect to call you after a long day, it\u2019ll always be there in all its orange and pink glory, waiting with a fresh batch of pastries for you to dive into. <\/p>\n

And don’t forget, you can WIN BREAKFAST FOR TWO<\/a> from our faves at Dunkin’ Donuts. Just head to our homepage at Beirut.com<\/a> and search for a photo of… you guessed it, donuts. (Hint: The pic is really small!!!) <\/p>\n

Once you find the image, click it for your chance to win. Yup, it’s that simple.<\/p>\n

Now if you\u2019ll excuse me, I\u2019m going to get a bagel. <\/big><\/p>\n
