Ninja Mochi Donut Shop serves up Korean corndogs, boba tea and mochi donuts in the Corpus Christi area. After hearing a friend rave about this donut shop for days on end, I decided to give it a shot.\u00a0Ninja Mochi Donut is a dessert shop in Corpus Christi, Texas, and is now my favorite donut spot.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I will admit I am not a fan of donuts as they are usually greasy and lack flavor but this was not the case for Ninja Mochi Donuts.\u00a0While they change their donut selection weekly, they have a few flavors that are always available: churro, glazed and chocolate cookie. I purchased a box of the three classic flavors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The donuts are baked with a unique mochi flour that creates a crispy crust that melts in your mouth; the inside of the donut is chewy but in the best way possible.\u00a0The churro option is my favorite since it does not have an overwhelming taste of cinnamon and it is well-balanced on the sweetness scale.\u00a0Priced at $2.79, these donuts have become their most popular item.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the next item, I completely disregarded my lactose intolerance because I just had to try the famous Korean corndog.\u00a0It was worth every penny and provided an \u201cInstagram worthy\u201d experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These corndogs are unlike your traditional sausage and pancake batter county fair corndogs. Ninja Mochi\u2019s Korean corndogs are made with homemade batter and mozzarella cheese.\u00a0You can choose your toppings; they have Takis, Hot Cheetos, potatoes, and ramen noodles.\u00a0I played it safe with the potatoes as my topping and I was pleasantly surprised at the crisp surface of the potatoes.\u00a0The corndog was crunchy and successfully provided the satisfying, iconic cheese pull.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While I was there, I decided to pair the Korean corndog with the milk tea boba. The drinks cost an average of $6, which is quite reasonable. I went with the Thai Boba as my first drink, which was rich and creamy. I am not a fan of boba, but I found this drink tolerable.\u00a0I have heard good things about matcha, so I chose this as my second option.\u00a0I have yet to experience a grain-free drink that doesn\u2019t taste like grass. I was hoping Ninja Mochi Donut would accomplish this, but they did not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The atmosphere is very relaxing and full of Korean pop culture along with their eye catching Naruto art.\u00a0Although Ninja Mochi Donut is located in Corpus Christi, I highly recommend the dessert shop and it is 100% worth the drive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
