Donut Connection is a chain that has a few locations in the southern part of the state: Charleston, Huntington and Beckley.
I had never tried one until I came to Charleston. Charleston has two: one on MacCorkle Avenue and one on Spring Street. On a free morning, I decided to try the MacCorkle location.
There are nearly 3 dozen different kinds to choose from, with everything from filled donuts and ring donuts to white cake and chocolate cake.
For my half dozen, I ordered:- Charleston delight, which is filled with a vanilla cream and topped with chocolate
- Cherry cake
- Honey dew, which tastes like a sour cream donut
- Peanut butter ice
- Toasted coconut
- Cronut



The Corner Kitchen, located on Bigley Avenue, serves up a few rotating dishes each day available for delivery or carry-out.
Some days, it may be spaghetti. Other days, it may be chicken & dumplings. They do have a few regulars every day: hot dogs, pulled pork BBQ, bologna, etc.
I've been curious about this place since I drove past it, and when I checked the website after work, I saw they had meatloaf as a special that day. That's one of my favvvvs.
Meatloaf with a sweet tomato sauce, scalloped potatoes and green beans. Plus a roll! Have you tried it?
On my venture to figure out which Mexican restaurant in the Kanawha Valley is my favorite, I tried out Casa Garcia with Dawn on Cinco de Mayo.
Located in the Riverwalk Plaza, the parking lot is busy. But I feel like that's a good sign.
After a few moments, we were seated. First order of business? Margs.
Second? Queso.
These two things alone are typically enough to brighten up any day. But, I didn't stop there, of course.
For my main meal, I ordered the Special Burrito, which had chicken, peppers, onions and topped with queso and ranchero sauce.
And dessert? Fried ice cream, always.
What's your favorite dish?

I'm about out of Tudor's Biscuit Worlds in the Kanawha Valley after this most recent trip to the Dunbar location.
'My go-to is a sausage biscuit (+ grape jelly), plus chocolate milk. On this day, I went crazy and added tater rounds.

What's your favorite biscuit?
