DonRocks Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 You give us Alain Ducasse; we give you The Fractured Prune. "Fractured Prune Launches National Expansion ...." by Lorraine Mirabella on baltimoresun.com "The 37-year-old chain now has 13 locations in Maryland, including Ocean City, Parkville, Halethorpe, Frederick and Salisbury, and in Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Later this month, a Fractured Prune will open in Utah, with more planned for New York City, Philadelphia, northern New Jersey, Arizona, California, Florida, Nebraska, Nevada, Idaho, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas, Brinton said." The name sounds ridiculous until you read about its backstory - it's actually kind of sweet (pun intended). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaofun Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I go to a Fractured Prune at least once every time I am in Ocean City, Md. Saveur mentioned them as one of the 50 best donuts in the US: http://www.saveur.com/gallery2/Best-Donuts?page=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielK Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Wasn't there already a thread about this somewhere? I liked the outlet they had in the Rockville Town Square a few years ago - when I could get there. Oddly, for a donut store, they were not open in the morning for breakfast, or late for dessert. Seriously, their hours were like 12-7. There was never anyone in the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the DC thread is here, and it's in the Maryland Dining Guide under Frederick since there are no longer any in DC or VA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanielK Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 So now we need a "Multiple Locations" dining guide for places that have locations in more than one city? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is historical precedent. Treating each city like it was the center of the universe, Rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
