Washington, DC
Unique doughnut flavors and fried wings – what more do you need? The chicken is the winner, cooked crisp with buttermilk or hot sriracha, though the crème brûlée doughnut also awes as you crunch the sugar crust and strike the creamy center. The chicken is available from 11:30am (11am weekends). You can even get your chicken sandwich on a doughnut 'bun.'
A couple of outdoor tables flank the door, but wee Astro is mostly for takeout.
