We Texans tend to prefer simplicity where food is concerned, but there are exceptions to every rule. The Salty Donut, a gourmet donut shop based in Miami, is one of them. A new location is opening up in Austin soon, and it definitely belongs on your food bucket list.

Based in Miami, The Salty Donut already has one Texas location in Dallas' Bishop Arts District. The popular breakfast joint is expanding into Austin next, however the exact opening date is TBD.

Don't expect many of the standard donut flavors you're used to. Instead, the menu is peppered with unique flavors like horchata, brown butter + salt, and even Texas chocolate sheet cake.

The donuts have either a cake or brioche base, the latter left to rise for a glorious 24 hours. You'll also see donut bars, which more so resemble cannolis than donuts - but that just means extra room for filling!
