    Taco Donut

    Puesto, Irvine, CA

    Grab some napkins! Upscale Mexican spot Puesto has created a messy mashup. Filet mignon, coated in melted cheese and formed into a donut shape, is laid over a bed of blue corn tortillas. Avocado and lobster go on top for a “donut” that reads more as super-fancy nachos. eatpuesto.com
