Chocoholics assemble

A Dublin city centre restaurant has added a Nutella burger to its brunch menu.

The indulgent dish is available at Ruby's Pizza and Grill Point Square and is made by deep frying a dollop of Nutella in a rich batter, according to 98FM.

The fried chocolate "patty" is then served in between a jam doughnut, giving it a burger-like structure, and is topped with vanilla ice cream, strawberries and a sprinkling of icing sugar.

The popular restaurant officially opened for business last month and is the second branch from the Ruby's Pizza & Grill chain.

At €8.95 (£7.99), the Nutella burger marks the launch of the restaurant's new brunch menu, which is available from this Sunday at 10:30am and is served until 2:30pm.

A video of the sweet dish being constructed has been watched more than 2,400 times after it was posted on the restaurant’s Facebook page.

But the new "burger" isn’t the only option on the menu for Nutella fans.

A sweet crust Nutella pizza also features on the restaurant’s dessert menu and is served alongside fresh fruit, vanilla ice cream and topped with grated hazelnuts.

The release of the Nutella burger comes just one year after McDonald’s announced they were launching a similar dish in Italian outposts of the fast-food chain.

The "Sweety con Nutella" burger consists of a thick dollop of the popular hazelnut spread sandwiched between two of the fast-food giants’ trademark buns.

Let’s hope it’s not too long until the Nutella burger trend makes its way over to the UK.
