Dining by the Alphabet – Part D
Posted on May 4, 2022 by Ching under Food and Drink.
To catch you up, here is a list of the previous restaurants we visited as part of this dining project:
This has been a super fun endeavor and, while our first three stops were restaurants that I’d already visited before, we did get to experience a new restaurant a few weeks ago — Doma.
We went to Doma after the pickleball tournament at the Wichita Country Club. I decided to take Brian out to dinner somewhere nice as his reward for being a good sport and helping me that day.
I ordered a drink, which I can’t even remember the name of now because I’ve slept (a few times) since then. The drink was very photogenic and worthy of its price tag. Although, I still like the pretty drinks at the Belmont better because I can at least get them for cheap during their daily happy hour.
Dining at Doma is a little bit different in that, rather than each person ordering their own dish (which you could totally do also), it’s best to order something from the menu with the intent of sharing.
Brian and I weren’t that hungry so we only ordered a few things.
I ordered the pork belly dish and Brian ordered the chicken dish.
We also ordered some fries. All three things were excellent.
I really wanted to order everything on the menu but (a) we weren’t that hungry to begin with, and (b) I always try to save room for dessert.
We got the sopapillas, which were good — but I was disappointed with the lack of cinnamon and sugar on the outside. My sister when to Doma a week after us and her sopapilla was covered with cinnamon and sugar. I’m not sure if the cook just missed a step the day we came or if they read my disappointment over the lack of powdery coating on social media. Either way, it was a minor miss and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit. In fact, Brian and I agreed that we would definitely be back to try some more things from their menu.
However, in the meantime, we need to move on to the next letter of the alphabet. If you have any restaurant suggestions for the letter E, please drop them in the comments. Until the next post, GNG.
