Specialty Doñitas
Specialty Doñitas redefine the idea of taco shells by using golden, pillowy mini-donuts. The result is an unexpected yet harmonious blend of sweet and savory.
Chefs shape small rings of enriched dough, fry them until light and airy, then dress each doñita with savory fillings or sweet glazes. Crispy on the outside and soft within, they serve as the perfect vessel for creative toppings.
Varieties range from smoky chipotle chicken doñitas to dulce de leche glazed rings topped with sea salt. Each offering balances textures to ensure the sweetness of the dough enhances, rather than competes with, the filling.
