How about a good wing place?

There have been quite a few discussions about wings and food in general- I'm partial to the wings at 200 5th on 5th ave, but some people say that there's a place a couple blocks further that's even better! I would do a search and read through the old threads... Happy hunting!

Bonnie's!
Bonnie's is the slope diner of legendary wing fame, as well as spectacular burgers, catfish burgers, and the crack fries of doom! The cook will make them diabolically hot, if that's your thing.

That's Fifth Ave on the same block and side of the street as Blue Ribbon - perhaps at 1st St?

Personally, the wing size at Wing Wagon isn't the main problem for me. I think the main flaws are the incredibly excessive saltiness and the undercrispness. They've got to fry those things longer before they sauce them. I usually find that if the wings are too big, most places have even more trouble with the crispiness issue, although I haven't tried Bonnie's yet.

Wait, buffalo wings are actually from Buffalo? Get out.

As legend would have it, they are indeed from Buffalo:

Try these<oops doesn't deliver to park slope>

Ale House does have mighty fine wings, and a delicious buffalo calamari. But, I make the best wings. Both buffalo and peanut (sounds weird, but you cannot imagine what peanut sauce, siracha and butter do for the humble wing), cooked in the leftover turkey oil in the backyard. Mmm.

I read the topic of this thread three times before I realized it didn't say "how about a good wig place?"


carry on.

"Scruffy Duffys" would be an odd name for a wig shop.

Actually, it's kinda hard to imagine what kind of shop would be enhanced by such a name.
