| - Such an interesting combination of cuisines. Who knew you could successfully sell donuts, fried chicken AND ramen all under one roof. It seems to be just what Welcome Chicken + Donuts is doing.
The venue is tidy and trendy. The photography in the indoor dining area gives it a homey flair. The wooden benches and tables outside give the outdoor dining area a rustic, picnic-y feel.
The cost is a little bit higher than you might pay elsewhere, but the business seems pretty passionate about its ingredients, their origins and quality, so it would seem that you're paying for food that's higher caliber than that found in cheaper venues. Overall, the cost isn't prohibitive, and only pinches the wallet a bit more.
The food was good. I tried the chipotle limon doughnut, which proved to be an interesting flavor combination. I also ate the vegan ramen -- and upon ordering they asked if I'd like the marinated egg which I thought was ironic (and I did choose to add it on). The ramen was good. There were bites of sweet with mildly salty noodles and other vegetables. I probably would have added some fish sauce or soy sauce, had it been on hand. No one in our party, coincidentally, ordered chicken, so I can't speak to that, but everyone seemed pleased with their donuts and ramen. I still can't get over that pairing...but it works!
I'd definitely come back here, but probably for the donuts, not the ramen. Like, I actually might come back for the donuts before I move. I want to try 'em all!
