Question of the day - where do you get good donuts?

Over the weekend, the subject of donuts took hold on our daydreaming mind, and we pondered the state of the independently-owned donut shop in NYC (conclusion: they are few and dwindling). Seems that Dunkin Donuts is what people think about when donuts come up on conversation. The big three of Peter Pan (Greenpoint), Doughnut Plant (LES), and Dough (Bed-Stuy) also often enter the conversation. So where do you like to get donuts? Which one is your favorite? Or are you more a croissant fan? And finally, which do you prefer – cake or raised donuts? We’d love to know – tips on good baked goods are always welcome.
