Curious about the viral pink donut shop in PIM 3? This spot is famous for its incredibly soft, cloud-like potato-dough donuts. Find out which flavors, like the zesty John Lemon and rich Bombolini, are worth the hype. While the treats are delicious, this article also gives a heads-up on the inconsistent staff service and shares essential ordering tips—like clarifying combo deals and using cashless payment—to ensure a sweet experience without any sour surprises.
Lately, my feed has been flooded with posts about that little pink shop in PIM 3. Everyone's saying their donuts are so soft it's"like eating a cloud" ☁️. With an"I've got to see what the hype is about" attitude, I went to check it out while I was out shopping over the weekend.
The shop is just a small booth, and the pink color scheme is really cute; visually, it totally gets us girls. You just want to snap a couple of pictures as soon as you see it from a distance, but there aren't many seats, so if you want to sit down and chill for a bit, you'll have to be lucky.
So, how does it actually taste?
Let me start with the conclusion: The taste is truly Mantap! 👍
I went straight for half a dozen and tried several flavors. The texture of their donuts is absolutely incredible—super duper soft and fluffy. They're supposedly made with potato dough[1], and they melt in your mouth, no exaggeration. Plus, they're a size bigger than other places', so it feels like it's worth the money[2].
- John Lemon[3]: Their signature, a must-try! A refreshing sweet and sour lemon flavor, not greasy at all, and very cooling. I could devour two in one go!
- Berry Cheesy[4]: A favorite for those who love sweet and savory! The sweet and sourness of the berries combined with the savory aroma of cheese creates a full-bodied flavor profile.
- Bombolini[5]: Italian donuts are the GOAT! The chocolate filling is super generous—it bursts in your mouth when you take a bite, Anjay! The sweetness level is just right, love it, love it.
Okay, let me be real for a sec…
The food is delicious, but some parts of the experience really made me frown. The staff's attitude is a total crapshoot[6]; some of them just have a sour look on their face and act dismissive when you ask a question, making you feel like you owe them a million bucks. Come on, no matter how good the food is, it can't make up for that kind of service...
Tips to avoid pitfalls & ordering guide!
For all the girls who want to go Nongkrong, remember these points. It'll save you a lot of trouble!
- 1. Ask about the combo deals: For those who want to buy the half-dozen combo for 75k IDR[7], pay attention! This deal might only include the basic ring donuts and not the Bomboloni![8] If you want the filled ones, you must confirm with the staff first, or you'll be shocked when you get the bill.
- 2. Keep your cool: If you run into a"moody" staff member, take a deep breath and don't let it ruin your dessert experience. After all, our goal is to devour that soft, fluffy donut!
- 3. Cashless payment: Get your Gopay/OVO ready! It seems like they only accept cashless payments[9], so don't be a fool and pull out cash.
- PIM 3's viral pink shop donuts? Soft like eating clouds [1]! Super fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth, totally addictive.
- Signature Bombolini [2] are packed with filling, bursting with rich, not-too-sweet chocolate in every bite. Anjay!
- Not just a cute pink shop, their donuts are way bigger than others [3]! Get ready for serious satisfaction.
