    Not entirely clear on when Winks World Famous Buttermilk Drop was rebranded as Winks Bakery & Bistro, nor really as to how or why the French Quarter space and subsequent expansion to a local mall became World Famous in the first place, it was just past the eight oclock opening that I entered the exposed brick and concrete floored space, glass cases not yet even filled as two young male voices could faintly be heard chatting in the distance.Generally assuming a Donut shop opening after sunrise is not serious about their craft, the sleepy-eyed young man finally emerging from the back with a what can I getcha, also suspect, it was with modern rock playing overhead that a few quick questions were answered, the dining-space filled with pictures of Wink empty save for myself throughout the next half-hour.Wondering how far this generation of the eatery differed from Winks original, the feeling far more hipster than the stripped-down yet superb Buttermilk Drop Bakery & Caf on North Dorgenois Street, donuts selected included a Pudding-filled pocket that trended far too artificial alongside an Apple Fritter that was equally disappointing, the outside a bit too oily without any semblance of Fruit at its doughy center.Finding a yeasted ring with Sugar crystals much better, the sweetened Cream Cheese frosting not dissimilar to that of the festive Fat Tuesday Cake, two of the formerly-eponymous orbs proved well-flavored with a bit of sourness beneath the glaze, though the crumb still fell short of nearby competitors by way of too-low an oil temperature which prevented the characteristic crispness around its edge. endoedibles.com
