Bird Doughnuts

You might recall my post regarding Bird earlier this year. I haven't yet been back to try other things on the menu. However, I have stopped by a couple of times to grab a coffee and a glazed doughnut (okay maybe a couple) from their 'Doughnut Hatch'. Their doughnuts are truly amazing and unique - no fuss, loads of flavours and the perfect size (i.e. very big).

Every day they have a variety of different flavours such as coconut, cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate... sold in the restaurant or from their' Doughnut Hatch' until they are sold out which they generally are.

DF / Mexico

DF / Mexico is the new cool place in town serve some of the best burritos and tortillas I have had in a while. 

They serve four kinds of food - NYC tortas, an homage to Mexico and NY fusion, soft corn tortillas perfectly seasoned, seriously perfect burritos and DIY Mexican boards. See the full menu here. All of the above are served and filled with either chicken, steak, fish or pork. There are also loads of sides to chose from - we definitely would suggest the lightly dusted chilli fries with chipotle sauce (which is to die for).

I took the fish tortillas and they were simply perfect. The panko crumbed cod was delicious (and cooked to perfection) and served with crunchy salad/red slaw and extremely good salsa (that chipotle mayo again), topped with a drizzle of lime all tucked into two soft tortillas.

The restaurant is hassle free and has a fast food vibe to whereby you order from a machine, pick up your 'all you can drink' drinks and simply wait for your food to arrive. If there are just two of you I recommend you sit near the window for a good session of 'people watching'.
