The Bird Restaurant is a trendy Camden joint serving the donut dream. Following years of searching for the infamous cronut, we found this rather indulgent concoction – the donut ice cream sandwich. We often do dessert before a meal as why must you wait until you are a bit full and the end of the day to get to the best bit? Although most people have a, non scientifically proven, separate compartment for dessert, there’s something a bit cheeky about skipping the savouries and just jumping straight to the dessert. It goes against the rules but it can be the best way to savour the flavours.
The donut ice cream sandwich is such a brilliant, sugary treat. The Donut Hatch supply the glazed donuts, that were topped with mini Eggs, in the spirit of Easter. The donuts filled with ice cream, topped with cream, chocolate and salted caramel sauce are scrumptious. It’s a mouthful of sweetness, and probably about a thousand calories, well worth wondering down to Camden for. Everyone else seem to be tucking into free-range fried chicken, that looked rather delicious too, so we will have to dig into that next time.
