Thanks for pointing out Kristys Doughnuts….that place should be a historical landmark. The only place to get doughnuts, hamburgers & Chinese food! I like the gratuitous Stefani Booroojian shot…..great job!

Best episode so far. Two thumbs up. Please let me know how the Chinese filled donuts were. Seems like such a fitting episode for National Donut Day. Good work guys.

Love this episode, but it would have been cool if you had covered Yokomi Science & Technology Elementary and the Boys and Girls Club that are right nearby.

  Thanks for watching! We only cover what's right at the cross street. Perhaps we'll catch them on another episode!

Great fun– and shows your appreciation for Fresno landmarks. Only thing is you head off to eat at all these places and we don't hear how it was. How was that Korean food?

I do like that skyscraper donut place idea, not so sure I want a giant spinning clown that's too close to my nightmares!

  I think that's what one would call sarcasm.

Actually, there are other places in the city that also do the donuts-hamburgers-chinese-tacos-etc. This is the only one that I know of that stands out with it's building. In SoCal they're more common. A bit of trivia here, in general, many donut shops are Cambodian run, its a niche market for them in the U.S.

  Oh definitely! We didn't mean to insinuate that this was the only place for donuts/chinese/hamburgers. There are quite a few, we'll have to do a tour! :)

The nifty thing about concepts like this is that a group of friends can go in, and each order what they're in the mood for, a mini food court type of feel.

I don't know why, but I was completely entranced by the tri-colored mini van. I must be tired.

good stuff. Looking forward to the next one. :)

I love what you guys are doing! I love the intersection of McCall and Ashlan…orange groves and a beautiful field with an old barn…on the other corner horses and sometimes cows…it is beautiful and in the spring the aroma of orange blossoms permeates the air all around the neighborhoods…near quail lake.

  Thanks for watching Jacquie! McCall & Ashlan is technically in Clovis, but we may have to make an exception to our "Fresno only" rule if it's as beautiful as you describe, haha.

Once again, excellent job of filmmaking. Taking off my F C hat and putting on my ex-D J hat for a moment. Note to Bryan "I remember Disco in the '60's" Harley, First Disco hit: Rock The Boat by the Hues Corporation #1 on 7.6.74! Kids … tsk, tsk!
