It’s the unlikeliest of loves — a culinary beauty and a beer. But it’s fitting that a marriage between doughnuts and brews is the perfect spot to test-drive your pairing, however oddball. If it’s going well, the neon pink “Donut Mess with Cleveland” sign and hip pineapple wallpaper make for a cute backdrop for you and your date to snap a quick pic. The doughnuts — from maple bacon bourbon ale to the Market Garden Brewery’s Midnight Vorlauf Coffee Porter iced rounds — are so good, they sell out lightning-fast. That’s the kind of yin-yang love you’ll only find in Cleveland. “It’s more than just a doughnut corner shop that you would just hit up on the way into work,” says co-owner Shelley Pippin. 6501 Detroit Ave., Cleveland, 216-600-9579, brewnutscleveland.com After: Dream of the City of Love as you browse French designer Anne Harrill’s delicate, geometric and minimalist accessories at Oceanne Jewelry. 6515 Detroit Road, Cleveland, 216-269-9027, oceanne.net #Foodie #Inexpensive
