lech

Lately, he’s been investing that goodwill in playing fiends, like his Oscar-nominated turn as the lech in “Poor Things.”

But my all-time favorite has to be a tres leches cake garnished with peaches or berries — I can eat that any day of the week.

Doce Donut Co., scheduled to open by May 6 in Fremont, will serve doughnuts with Latin American flavors such as hot Mexican chocolate and tres leches, using a 24-hour raised brioche dough.

The Hollywood Reporter characterized the portrayal as “a creepy beady-eyed lech peering out from under a mountain of latex.”

And the episode’s final test, what Netflix calls “an airy tres leches cake” — which is like saying “a flaky bagel” — is rendered unrecognizable by the injunction to layer and stack it.
