A Look at the Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding and Shrimp & Grits That Changed Our Lives

When you’re presented with a Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding dish at a restaurant, it’s one of those moments where you definitely order dessert first.

That’s what happened when Phil and I checked in to our Spartbanburg, SC Marriott hotel a few days back during our trip to Denny’s HQ. Upon receiving our room keys, we asked the helpful desk clerk what our options for food were. Without hesitancy he responded “KRISPY KREME BREAD PUDDING.

Wait, what? That’s not a full statement!

Phil and I gave each other a double take, and then looked back at the desk operator to see if he had anything left in his voice box…maybe a location? Sure enough, he directed us to the hotel restaurant, Sparks Fire-Inspired Grille and couldn’t stop foaming at the mouth as he described the last time he ate there and the mounting orgasm he achieved when he had a helping of the famed Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding.

I’m a fan of orgasm as much as the next guy, so we decided to venture out of the lobby and into the beautiful decore of the rest of the hotel to sink our teeth into this supposed decadence. We grabbed a few seats in the lounge, and ordered Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding (appetizer), a wedge salad (awesome), a flatiron steak (tastes just how it looks) and then the sleeper dish to end them all: Shrimp & Grits.

The Shrimp & Grits included a bed of creamy, cheesy grits tossed with tasso ham, layered with humongous shrimp and a fried egg on top for that added sex appeal. Here’s a complete look, book-ended with the Shrimp & Grits that will change your life (if you’re ever in town, duck into this hotel and try it yourself):
