      Try Howlin’ Rays in Pasadena California! Probably the spiciest chicken I’ve ever had. Juicy and crispy too! The original restaurant is in Chinatown LA which has more reviews.

    Express Wings was indeed a majorly bad representation for Delaware. Before you said what you had chosen, my mind went racing with all the excellent possibilities it could be. But when I heard you mention Express, a location I live about 10 minutes away from, my heart completely sank. They are far from the top offerings the state has.
    As a life-long local, the two recommendations I'd make for DE are Miltonian Pizzaria & Wing House for Southern DE, and James Street Tavern for Northern DE. Both very distinct styles with amazing sauce flavors. Kid Shelleens is also a popular pick up north. But as I said there are many great choices. Oh well, maybe next time!

    • @chrisnovak8782
      @chrisnovak8782 Год назад +2

    Once you make it to Illinois, you need to try this local, family owned and ran home in the wall spot called Chicken Lit in Naperville.
    I've never read wings like this anywhere in the country.
    They use a family recipe to batter and fry the wings, and provide all kinds of sauces on the side for dipping so you don't get soggy wings.

    If you ever decide to do a rerun of PA, please consider Center Street Grille in Enola. The place *looks* like a real hole in the wall, but they're home of really excellent restaurant grade food, AND their wings are highly rated; even consistently placing high in the National Buffalo Wing Festival each year!

  • @kaylangee1894
    @kaylangee1894 Год назад +12

    My hot take is that bigger wings are usually not better. They seem to get more gristle when they’re bigger. I usually prefer a medium size wing.
    Also Sam - we recently moved to Buffalo and can’t wait to see your adventures here!

    When you make your way to South Carolina, you absolutely HAVE to try the Spicy Pterodactyl wings from the Publick House in Columbia. My dad took me there a few years ago, and I was so blown away that I introduced my friends to this spot and it immediately became a weekly tradition because they’re so incredible.

    When you hit Ohio, please consider Winking Lizard. It's a local Northeast Ohio chain. I'd go with Goldfinger for a mild sauce, Thai for medium, and 911 for hot but still having good flavors.
    For even smaller ones but awesome breweries too, try Fatheads and Brew Kettle. Cheers!
