| - Welcome Chicken + Donuts sounds like the whole name is a full sentence.
DONUT: Strawberry Cheesecake AND the Passion Fruit. The strawberry cheesecake is better than the passion fruit for sure. I must say, when getting donuts here, go with the filled ones. The filling is to die for in most of those donuts, but I found the passion fruit to be a little lack luster. Maybe I was hoping for a more intense passion fruit flavor, but overall, the donuts are fried to perfection and the right amount of sugar is added. The donuts definitely stick to your sides, so even after sharing half and half of both donuts, it being one full donut, damn, it's a lot of donut.
CHICKEN: Thigh and Wing with Japanese Sesame Sauce + Watermelon Fennel Salad. The chicken itself was fried very well. I must say that the thigh and wing were fried to the right crispy level. The Japanese sesame sauce though was a little too sweet for me. I wish I had gotten another sauce looking back on it, but they offer other sauces (Vietnamese and Korean inspired sauces). The watermelon fennel salad definitely cuts into the heaviness of the meat and the donut (that you may have already eaten because I know I did) and is mighty tasty.
SERVICE: The friendly Arizona vibes are strong here!
Chicken and waffles, move on over, and let Chicken and Donuts take over. Come here definitely around brunch-ish time if you are making a weekend appearance because this place closes at 4:00 and I have heard if they run out of food, they close the doors earlier. I would definitely visit this wonderful establishment again in Phoenix!
