Wings Galore

We will begin this review with one of our favorite bar food favorites, chicken wings!


We always enjoy a fun trip to any of these great wing joints we have in Ohio. We thought we would give a detailed review on 3 of the biggest wing restaurants Ohio (and some other states) has to offer! Our three delicious candidates are, Buffalo Wild Wings, Roosters, and Buffalo Wings and Rings.


Buffalo Wild Wings

Buffalo Wild Wings, or "B-dubs" as people like to call it, is most likely the most popular wing joint in America, and probably the most successful. Its a fun place to enjoy food, drinks, and sports. They also have free tablet games for anyone who is into that kind of thing (we enjoy the trivia game). They have a decent sized menu with a variety of dishes, and frequently add new menu items which is always nice.




Surprisingly enough, b-dubs is actually not our favorite wing place when it comes to specifically just wings. We usually stick to boneless wings and for the price of what you pay for their wings, it seems a little too high in our opinion. Also their meat is not the best quality. Every time we get the boneless wings at B-Dubs they are strange in texture, and don't seem to be real white meat.

With that being said, the sauces at b-dubs are great which almost makes up for it. The Asian Zing is a very good spin on a sweet Thai chili sauce, which isn't over the top spicy, but does have a lot of flavor. The Thai Curry is also one of our favorites, its spicy, strong, and flavorful if you're on the adventurous side, it almost tastes like a spicy tikka misala (Indian flavor).

With the wings not being our favorite, we usually get a sampler with extra sides and appetizers to fulfill our bellies. If it were up to us, we would not go here for just wings themselves.


Buffalo Wings And Rings

Buffalo Wings and Rings is another fun wing place for sports and food. We are actually new to this particular restaurant. We've only been there a few times, but we were extremely satisfied each time.




BWAR is greatly appreciated by us for the unique variety of the menu and sauce selection. The quality of their meat was also something we loved, and feel is the most important factor at a wing joint. The wings have always been served to us fresh. They are also served in a heaping bowl of sauce which is always great. (THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN AN SAUCE-LESS WING!!!!)




There are many great sauce choices that caught us by surprise, such as the Cool Wasabi. This particular sauce is a great addition to any wing, it was a nice cool sauce with a slight zing. We also tried the buffalo which was just as amazing.




The most amazing and unique thing about BWAR is the spice level concept for the sauces. Whether you're a fan of spicy or mild, you can try any sauce on the menu at any spice level you might be comfortable with! This is not offered at the other two restaurants we are comparing.



Rooster's

We've saved the best for last! Very well known by us Ohioans, Roosters is our favorite wing place we've ever had!!! The wing quality is a 10, the meat is fresh, and the sauces are unbeatable.



The sweet Thai Chili and Carolina Gold sauces are the best by far (in our opinion)! We love the white meat, and great texture that wings should have. The fresh sizzle of wings being brought to the table at Roosters is awesome. We could order just wings here and be completely satisfied. There is no need for extra's, although Rooster's does have some of the best apps!

The menu has something for everyone, and everything we have tried is delicious. The fried chicken sandwich is also another delicious option, the chicken is so juicy and flavorful that we didn't need a single drop of any condiment added to this sandwich. (IMPRESSIVE).

We have only great things to say about Rooster's. If you've never tried it we highly recommend it. It's a great place for a drink and food during a football game or a weekend night out!

And that is all for our lengthy review of wings! Hope you all enjoyed! Comment below with your favorite wing place!

Till next time, Tasty!

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Amorino has the Gelato

  Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well.  When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so pretty!

Fatso's.. hopefully Not-so Last Stand

Fatso’s Last Stand is a "somewhat" fast food restaurant that can also be found on the outskirts of Chicago. When it comes to hot-dogs, Chicago is the place you want to be. For those who may not know, the traditional Chicago dog includes an all-beef frank placed on a poppy seed bun, with a lot of toppings such as, white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled peppers, and lastly yellow mustard. Out of the many, many, places in Chicago you can find a great hot dog we wound up at Fatso’s. Not only does Fatso’s offer great hot-dogs, they have their own spin on hamburgers. The burger is famously named “The Fatso Burger” and we couldn’t leave without trying both. When ordering you’ll also notice that all of their hot-dogs are served Chicago style, but you can add or remove all the toppings that you would like. Fatso’s has a few different types of hot-dogs to pick from in terms of the meat and style
