Today we’d like to introduce you to David Sim.
David, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
Wow! Donuts & Drips took two years to develop. We wanted to elevate and revamp a timeless classic. Donuts and Coffee have persevered over the years of different food trends coming and going. However, because they have been around so long, the concept has become stale. We wanted to create a new approach to donuts, where each one is made to order. We make everything fresh and from scratch. We treat each donut like a pastry. We always let the topping shine and speak for itself but we never forgot what a donut should be. Soft, fluffy, melting in your mouth, we have perfected the glazed donut base.
Donut and Coffee shops are places where families and friends are supposed to get together to catch up, relax and enjoy conversation. A lot of donut and coffee shops nowadays have forgotten this and created a “grab-and-go” concept. At Wow! Donuts & Drips, we spent a lot of time and effort into creating an interior that is clean, comfortable, open and inviting.
Our coffee is not any coffee you would find at any other donut shop. We have spent lots of time and effort into perfecting each and every cup. Using the Alpha Dominche Steampunk MOD, we make the perfect cup of coffee and tea. We source our rotating menu of coffees and teas from all over the world. We pride ourselves in having the speed of a “fast food” chain but the quality of a small local coffee shop.
Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
This project definitely has had its ups and downs, however, it is definitely never smooth for anybody opening a new business venture.
Wow! Donuts & Drips – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
What separates us from the others is our attention to detail and quality for our products. We make sure that everything that gets sent out of the kitchen is literally, perfect.
We make our donuts to order, a concept that is definitely different than any other.
Our coffee machine is very rare. It’s a full immersion siphon brewer. A method that brings out all the complexity in black coffee. We are trying to show the community that black coffee can be just as complex and intricate as most teas and wines.
What is “success” or “successful” for you?
When a customer, sees and understands what we are trying to do. When a customer, sees and appreciates the level of care and attention to detail that we hold for our products. That to me, is a success.
