  Here a nibble, there a nibble, everywhere a nibble, Nibble!. Certainly by now youve heard of a CronutTM and its many imitations, and maybe youve even been lucky enough to have tried one of the originals ( I havent). But I think Ive now nibbled on something totally different. A cross between a doughnut and a bagel. Not a true NYC bagel, mind you, but then with such a combination, how would you ever know? Im going to call it, obviously, a doughgel (it sounds better than a bagnut).There has been much discussion about the texture of the doughgels, oops, doughnuts sold by Nibble. Some people like them, some people dont. But isnt that the case with any food? As others have suggested, dont go in expecting to have a French cruller, a glazed raised, or a Krispy Kreme. Maybe thats why they should consider marketing them as doughgels. Nobody, I repeat, NOBODY has an idea what a doughgel should taste like or what its texture should be. I think Ill trade mark that word.Having read all the reviews, we decided that two of Nibbles doughnuts would be enough for the two of us. The difficulty was trying to decide which varieties to buy from the maybe eight choices still remaining on their shelves at 1:30 on a Saturday afternoon. My wife selected the signature Dark Chocolate Sea Salt ($2.50) and I decided on the simple Pineapple Habanero ($1.50). The chocolate one actually was made with a chocolate batter and had a tasty dark chocolate drizzle on top. So there was a double amount of good chocolate flavor coming through. The faint flavor of habanero and the more dominant flavor of pineapple were in the glaze on the top of my standard potato-based doughnut.Beneath the toppings on these doughnuts was a crusty outer finish which yielded with each nibble to a denser and chewy interior that was in many ways similar to some decent bagels that Ive had. I can now understand how it could be possible to add some bacon, egg, and cheese, or corned beef to one of the plain simple doughnuts and have a nice sandwich. Without the drizzles or the toppings, the doughnuts are not inherently sweet.Were going to have to make some additional visits to explore the possibilities here, and Im looking forward to that. The staff were friendly and helpful in explaining the favorites and differences between the doughnuts when I told them we were newbies to Nibble.
