Long's Bakery

    "You guys have to try this Doughnut place", our Grandson Christopher told me in a birthday phone call. It was a bakey close to his house in Indianapolis.  I have a little weak spot for doughnuts and everything else that involves sugar, fillings, frostings and deep frying.  I put it in my mental "gotta try list" for the next time I visited them in Indy.
    We arrived, after Siri gave us her usual tour of the city, to find a line going out the door of the bakery. Once in the door we found a very clean, very busy, bakery.  The smell of deep fried doughnuts wafting through the air. (You know, they ought to make an air scent that smells like that.)  In front of us was a few showcases filled with delectable goodies.  On the walls were boards with their offerings along with their prices.
    Now comes the hard part.  What to order. I kind of stood back a little and listened, to try to find out what other people were ordering.  This was no help at all because everybody was getting boxes and boxes of all types. I looked on the board.  They had everything you could think of including something called an alligator, that caught my attention. Another thing that caught my attention was the very low prices on that board.
  We decided on a baby alligator which was long and rectangular cinnamon roll with nuts and frosting on top.
I also had chosen a cinnamon fried doughnut, cinnamon being good for diabetics, lol. Rebbel chose a powdered doughnut, and we got Christopher a chocolate glaze and a couple of yeast glze for the rest of our hosts.
   The doughnuts were delicious.  Nothing fancy here just a real good tasting doughnut, at a very decent price. In fact they are known for their regular yeast glazed doughnut. They don't even put those in the case.
They are cash only so make sure you bring enough to buy what you need, but not too much extra so you won't get carried away.  Longs Bakery is located at 1453 Tremont, Indianapolis, Indiana
