Doughboys

Over the weekend I took my parents to Doughboys in Los Angeles for my mom's birthday. After hearing that Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres are big fan's of the eatery's red velvet cake and seeing the extensive menu, I knew that I had to try it out.

I ordered the vegetarian benedict and it was a big plate piled with eggs, potatoes, sliced tomatoes, salad and fruit. It was pretty good but nothing amazing. My mom and dad ordered a huge bowl of French onion soup and a large club sandwich to share. Unfortunately they weren't fans of the soup. It was too thick and reminded them of gravy.

For dessert we ordered that famous red velvet I mentioned. The cream cheese frosting is amazing! It makes the cake. The thick layers of the goodness were the perfect ending to our lunch.

Overall, I wasn't amazed with the experience but I probably would go back to give Doughboys a second shot.
