Those who can't resist snacking on cookie dough will definitely want to take the time to visit DŌ (pronounced dough), a new destination in New York City that serves up a variety of cookie dough confections. As such, it's being introduced to the public as a dedicated "cookie dough cafe."
Some of the scrumptious items on the menu at DŌ include cookie dough ice cream, cupcakes, SanDOwiches, cookies, pies with cookie dough crusts, as well as DIY sundae and make-your-own sandwich options.
A consumer desire to participate in foodie culture has created room for plenty of businesses that focus on a single ingredient, food or drink at a time. Examples of this include liquor stores that only sell whisky, restaurants with pickle-centric menus and mustard tasting bars.
