#WhattheFung is happening at Datz Dough?  Our favorite Tampa sweet shop is hitting the TV screen with an appearance on "What the Fung?!", a new original series on the FYI Network starring the Fung Brothers and, for this episode, Dough's delicious Key Lime Pie Doughnut.

The Tampa episode of "What the Fung?!" premieres on June 4th at 9pm but Dough is kicking off the celebraton on June 3rd with a "It's A Fung Night" Doughnut Decorating Pre-Premiere Party! We'll tell you more about this later, right now let's talk about #WhattheFung is #WhattheFung?

On "What the Fung?!" YouTube sensations Andrew and David Fung, better known as the Fung Brothers, travel across the US in a comedic "eat-venture" searching for the most authentic and delicious local food spots.  

From Tampa to Los Angeles, San Diego, Asheville, Fort Worth, New Orleans, and beyond they explore, chat with locals, and aren't afraid to get their hands dirty when they jump in the kitchen with local chefs.  Armed with a budget of just $50 each per day, they eat and drink like "#Ballers on a Budget".  

The other star of the "What the Fung?!" Tampa show is Dough's Key Lime Pie Doughnut!  This doughnut is no ordinary doughnut.  This delectable doughnut is stuffed with a tantalizing key lime curd, glazed, finished with a dollop of delicious cream cheese icing, and topped with a graham cracker crust! It's melt in your mouth wowzers!

What makes the Key Lime Pie Doughnut so delicious? I got the chance to sit down with Dough Pastry Chef extraordinaire Tina Contes to learn a little more about the Key Lime Pie Doughnut and her experience with the Fung Brothers and "What the Fung?!".  

My mouth was still watering after devouring the doughnut so I was curious about the inspiration behind it.  Contes said she created the doughnut last summer as a nod to Florida. After all the chocolate and heavy cakes and pastries surrounding her, she wanted something light and refreshing, "The staff loved it and it just stuck", I couldn't agree more!

As for the taping of the show, Contes said "it was all very organic and natural, it wasn't a competition or a reality show." The Fung Brothers walked in and paid for their Key Lime Pie Doughnuts like any other customer, minus the 16 people on the camera crew!  Once the doughnuts were purchased, the Brothers joined Contes in the kitchen and made them, start to finish. 

"They hadn't baked before so this was a completely new experience for them" said Contes. "It was fun to bake and explain the process in a person to person way, there was no element of pressure."  Once the hard work was finished, they had the chance to sit down and enjoy their creation. Contes said they were "Flipping out for the donuts!!!!!" Well, that's not any surprise!

Since the Key Lime Pie Donuts are only $2.49 each, the Fung Brothers had $47.51 left to eat their way around Tampa the rest of the day. Now that's some, Ballin on a Budget! 

The Tampa episode of "What the Fung?!" premieres on June 4th at 9pm but Dough is kicking off the celebraton on June 3rd with a "It's A Fung Night" Doughnut Decorating Pre-Premiere Party!
