I'm not sure how to describe how much I like donuts. I travel the world in search of baked goods,…read moreso when I say this is a good donut, I mean it. Like, it is really good. One of the best I've ever had. I've tried the strawberry one, oreo one, another glazed one with walnuts. Mmm mm. They are light and sweet and not too greasy (which is a big problem with homemade donuts). I walk by here every time I go to the yoga studio and that is dangerous. I tried a bagel sandwich the other day that was also good, but the bagel just wasn't as crispy on the outside as I like it. I am sort of a bagel snob since I hail from New York City though, so I might be overanalyzing it. I'd likely go back and eat another because I like bagel sandwiches. The soup I tried was just meh, curry cauliflower, I found it too thin. But the donuts will definitely be my #1 item and I'll probably end up buying them every single week at this rate.

Deadly Donuts have gotten into the donut revolution early, and they're gooooood. I tried coming here a few times before actually being able to have a donut. A sign hangs in the window letting people know if the donuts are sold out but it's misleading- the cafe is still open even when sold out (it looks like a closed sign so I've passed by before without realising they were open) and last time I was here the sold out sign was up but the donuts were brought out five minutes later. The owner is a lovely hard working guy who knows his fried goods and loves a chat about tasty treats. He has just started hosting weekly BYOB dinners which also sound brilliant. Highly recommend coming here and persevering for donuts!

Sausage Roll: A very meaty sausage roll. Like it's mostly sausage, with a bit of dough around it. The sausage itself had veggies and herbs in the mix. Perfect if you want a big meal for breakfast. Cheese Scone: Subtle and mild cheesy. I didn't have any butter on hand, but imagine that would make this even better. Twice Baked Blackcurrant & Pistachio Croissant: Loved that there was a nice jam spread in the middle of the croissant. The twice-baking meant it wasn't as airy/flaky as once-baked croissant, but that is easily overlooked since the blackcurrant makes up for it. Frangipane Bar: A really great take on a dessert bar. Perfect if you love marzipan, but don't want to eat one of those weird brightly shaped candies. I liked this so much, I'm gonna look up how to make this at home.

Responsible in practices, sustainable packaging and living wages part of their ethos, choices range from Cake to Risen and Bismarks with the later exemplified by springy Brioche filled with a Maple-Cinnamon Custard beneath Cinnamon Icing and a "Doughnut Crouton." Trendy but not overwrought, an Old Fashioned with Bacon given depth by Brown Butter, Tantrum's signature Almond Buttermilk Old Fashioned eats moist and subtle while Cereal Milk Crunch takes a decadent approach fully-stuffed with nutty-sweet Cream. Using Hibiscus instead of the usual Raspberry for a Pistachio ring, surprising almost anywhere outside of Latin America, perhaps the best overall bite comes from a squared "Old Fashioned" that is actually a Blueberry Cake Doughnut with naturally flavored Icing and a drizzle of White Chocolate.

So, I knew I would treated to the max and the choices would be good but how good is Edinburgh?! I have heard about the 24 hour drive-thru and all about the queues. Angela B. and I decided to go here for part of my birthday day out in Edinburgh. She did also have special orders from her Mr to get many doughnuts-to-go, or else. No argument there! It has been opened for a quite a while now, so it was a pleasant, non-busy, non-queuing experience. We enjoyed watching the Doughnut Theatre in full action and taking lots of photos in the process. We made our way up to the counter and I needed sugar fast as I was flagging, lots of birthday excitement, and I was still to drive back to Glasgow. I ordered a strawberries and cream, I like doughnut with a filling best, along with a mocha and cream. Sugar rush!!! Yas! I ordered separately 3 doughnuts to take away, an original glazed, another strawberries and cream and a glazed raspberry filled doughnut. Delicious! As we had came into a Hotlight store, Angela had good knowledge here, it meant it had a Hotlight Happy Hour and it at the exact time we arrived, between 7.00pm - 8.00pm. Ya dancer! This meant we were treated to a free original glazed doughnut, hot off the line. Oh man, it was like biting into fluffy sugary clouds. It was amazing! I think I may have boarded on delirious. Please note they don't automatically do this, we had to ask and then double check with another staff member we were getting the doughnuts. So ask! Edinburgh you have proved to be worthy and I would more than happily go back. So with our Krispy Kreme hats, balloons, doughnuts-to-go and a faces so high on sugar, we skipped merrily on our way.

This little take away lunch spot popped up late last year on St. Enoch square and immediately…read morepiqued my interest. As the name would suggest it's loaded with American style food, don't be down heartened though this is no run of the mill 'American diner' serving cheap hot dogs and yucky burgers from the cash and carry. The food from Nic's is tasty, well thought out and delicious. There are of course the likes of baked potatoes and sandwiches with lovely looking toppings to be enjoyed. My eyes however were very much glued to the Hot Dog menu where you can try such delights as the amazing Cheesy Pig Dog ( bacon and cheese) or the BBQ Dog (sweet fried onions, BBQ Sauce and dill pickle) or the very tempting Glasga Dog ( black Pudding and fried egg). What makes these dogs in my opinion the best take away dogs in Glasgow is that they fry off their dogs for a few minutes which makes them extra tasty. I've not tried the freshly made pancakes or waffles yet but they do come with some lovely looking toppings - the Banana Beast ( banana, maple, pecan nuts and ice cream) Peanut Butter Jelly Time (peanut butter and blackcurrant or strawberry jam) or the Sweet Porker Stack ( bacon and maple syrup) these are definitely next on my list to try from the menu. On my last visit I finally gave in to the cool looking doughnuts. These lovely little clouds of light dough are made in-house ensuring they are as fresh as they come. The base is so soft and flavoursome, the topping is a luscious thick layer of fondant sprinkled with a variety of American style toppings - Oreo, peanut butter cups, smarties, marshmallows......the list is endless. What really excited me tho was while chatting with the girls they announced that they were expecting their doughnut menus to arrive any minute. Hang on! Let's just think about that for a second........a menu......dedicated to doughnuts.......it's the stuff of dreams! Nic's is a great wee lunch spotwhere they use really good quality food and the girls who work there are all lovely and helpful when trying to make your selection....what's not to love about this place.

When you go in, it looks just like a normal deli... then you notice the amazing menu (taco bowls, proper dogs, "Triple Bypass" baguette etc.) and the cheeky bottle of Buckfast that's apparently used on Fridays to make some of their food a little more special. Going back to the food, it did take me a couple of minutes to choose what to have because EVERYTHING looked awesome. Even the SALADS!!! I was guided by the lovely staff who work there and plumped for the Taco bowl. A large, crispy tortilla shaped into a bowl stuffed with salad, guacamole, sour cream, PULLED PORK (this was my topping), covered with jack cheese and some Glasgow Megadeath chilli sauce. Great stuff. And for dessert you MUST get one of their special donuts... loads of flavours. Think Krispy Kreme but without the nasty aftertaste (you know what I mean!). If you've never been here, cancel all of your other plans and go here ASAP! You won't regret it...

We tried a Steak and Ale pie and an Original Scotch Pie with brown sauce packet for the pour over. I enjoyed mine (Scotch Pie) and could've eaten a couple more God willing. Along with an Irn Bru, this was a satisfying and affodable meal. Definitely give this place a try when in the area.
