It’s almost impossible to not get an eyeful of Donna, fashionably poised at the far end of the bar as we settle down at our marble-topped table for a mid-week lunch date. We’re in the interior section of the eponymous Donna Deli. A new, casual dining café that’s very much on the lines of the ones we see along the streets of European cities like Milan and Paris.

A cosy space that features a cream colour palette, interspersed with plenty of black accents. Like the pinstripe walls, large framed zebra prints and vintage, speckled mirrors that reflect typically European chintzy upholstered chairs and comfortable couches. Donna, in case you were wondering, is the cafe’s resident fashionista mannequin. One that we’re told will have an entire wardrobe change every season by an assortment of designers who will display their creations on her.
