Get The Dirt On Dirt Candy
Grapefruit Lollipops. Kimchi Doughnuts. Jalapeno Hush Puppies. These are a few things Amanda Cohen (Angelica’s Kitchen alum) dreams up in her kitchen at Dirt Candy located at 430 East 9th Street. Committed to providing beautiful healthy treats using ingredients found literally in the dirt (half of the dry items are from Organic vendors), Cohen offers a small but impeccable menu of fresh healthy meals (everything on the menu can be made vegan on request). I can’t wait to go back to try the asparagus paella ($19) and zucchini ginger cake ($12). Just watch out, the bill can quickly add up…but I guess that’s the price you pay for good dirt!
