A newcomer in the FiDi / SoMa / East Cut area dedicated to wings of many different flavors. A bit messy for a business lunch, so only go with your work friend co-workers. So many flavors to choose from, it's a bit overwhleming!
Cauliflower Bites: This was a mixed experience. The pieces with frilly shoots on top were delicious, since they got so crispy and also tasted quite delicate. The thicker denser pieces, especially the stems, kinda tasted like unappealing boiled cauliflower and weren't crispy at all. So what did I do? Just ate the crispy top pieces. Portion was large enough so that it was fine, but I did feel bad not eating all my veggies. Also, ranch was a good pairing but maybe something with some heat would have been better?
The Garlic Rebel: I normally go for spicy wings, but the "Best Seller" label steered me here. It was indeed very garlicky. Also a smidge spicy. And it was BBQ sauce kinda sweet. I was actually given 7 wings, since they said the wings were smaller than usual. They were all the wingette part, none of the drumette part, which I found strange. Though I devour more wings at home, this was actually a solid lunch portion with the generous amount of fries.
Buffalo Ranch Fried Chicken Sandwich (Medium): Almost ordered the hot, but I got a warning about ghost pepper, so didn't feel like dealing with super hot aftertaste back at the office. However, maybe I should have been more adventurous since medium was kinda tame. The sandwich itself was a lot of fun with very lightly battered flattened chicken breast that was fried and sauced, so it almost had wing-like texture. Great against the buttery soft bun. Also, their ranch sauce is just delish, so was perfect on the sandwich.
Ranch Fries: You don't have to worry about coming up short on fries. The portion that comes with a combo could easily feed 2-3 people. I got the ranch flavor, which was bursting with flavor. Kinda tasted like Cool Ranch Doritos, but as potatoes. Though I must say, this seemed like sodium overload. I was feeling it halfway through my meal and felt that sodium bloat for a good hour or two later. Still, no regrets, since I couldn't stop munching these fries.
