"Nana’s in Mystic appeals to two types of road trippers: the Type A who wakes up at 5am to beat the morning traffic, and the procrastinator who packs the hour before they leave and doesn’t start driving until noon. The morning folks can grab an egg sandwich and a latte with coconut miso caramel before getting back on the road, while the afternoon stragglers can grab a 13-inch mushroom and creamed kale pie to enjoy outside beside the Pequotsepos River. You shouldn’t leave without several of their made-to-order sourdough donuts, though, which are perfectly pillowy with a hint of fermented tang, and topped with your choice of dustings like matcha ginger and cacio e pepe." - anne cruz
