Jesus    that's the problem today   TOO many fruity drinks.  

 

If its a Bills Bar you have Labatts, Molson. Then a few others like Bud, Michelob, and for the fruity fans , a Corona to shove a lime in.  

 

sounds like for you...it's too many people with taste!

 

now go shoot at the deer and the kids eatin your lawn

On Sunday, we visited the Frederick restaurant. It was fine. The BOW was decent, the wings were OK, bar service was spotty.

 

One pet peeve is the beer menu. They list the brewery but not the style. You have to ask about each and the taps are too far way to read. Even small bars have updated printed lists or display on a board. Not that hard to do. 

 

Overall, for a Sunday lunch in late April, it wasn’t that busy. 

 

Thanks for the review.  I'll have to check it out soon.  I live about 20 miles south of there off I-270.

My long time bride drinks cosmopolitan's and I like anchovies and black olives on my pizza pies. Go suck on a boiled egg...you beverage Nazi.

taste?  For fruity cocktails ....  Not really.  

 

Real men drink beer not spiced juices with hopps   

 

Hey ....  Do they give you those little umbrellas to put in your beer glass too?

LOL  Apparently not.

OK, I finally broke down and drove the 40 miles to the Duffs in Newnan, GA. I don’t get a good beef on weck very often, so it was worth the trip. Wings were the best I’ve had in Georgia, which isn’t saying too much, but they were good and I’m glad I went. Once.

 

(Full disclosure, I had people working at the house and just wanted to get away for a while.)

When cave men go to a bar they only drink crap.  Got it.  Thanks for your input.

Afterwards, if you like breweries, checkout Flying Dog and Old Mother Brewery.

LOL   Labatt and Molson are not crap beer. Both have the same or exceed the ABV of the average IPA.   The Cororna I'd agree with.

 

Thank you for not getting my ball busting.

Too much IPA, and IPO.

Yes, I know the comma is there.  If it isn’t, the meaning changes.

Hey! I haven’t had Duff’s in several decades, and they warn you that the mediums are hot, and the hot are Super hot. I don’t do “I dare you” food. 

 

I was at a pizza place a while ago and a guy comes in and sits down next to me. He orders 10 hot. They warn him hot is super HOT. (Not sure what they add, but it’s not the regular sauce, but stronger.) He says “that’s what beer is for”. OK. After the first wing I ask how they are. He says “fine”. During the second wing he chokes out “it builds on you.” By the third wing his eyes and nose are running, and he’s ordering two beers at a time. It was hysterical, from MY seat! He’s blowing his nose, with tears running down his face, too ashamed to give up on his 10 wings. I still chuckle when I think of it. 

 

It turns out the medium was.....just medium.

I wish GOOD wings would spread across the country like wildfire. A “wing revolution”!

 

We just booked a condo in Hilton Head in June for a family get together. Reminds me that in the early 80’s there nobody had heard of chicken wings. I was with he guy who ran a restaurant down in South Beach, and he was asking questions. He was getting curious, and I was getting hungry! We went to the grocery store and made the first wings on Hilton Head Island, and maybe in the state of SC. He said “these are pretty good, they might catch on!” Haha

The secret to a good wing is buying high quality chicken wings

 

AND

 

deep frying them for the right amount of time 

 

no wing sauces or flavors can overcome a badly prepared wing

Flabby wings should come with a brief prison sentence. 

 

The first time! 

 

After that, you should know better!

Way back I was working in Cortland and we used to go to a college dive that had solid wings.  One night the chef said something about watching out for the hot wings and we foolishly said something like ‘can’t make them hot enough for us!’    Big mistake.  ?

Tell the whole truth. The workers got tired of your interfering and bossiness. They gave you an ultimatum: Either you leave or they will leave.

OK, my wife was out of town, and I get tired of fending off the housekeepers. I’m not sure if they grasp my english, but I can see it in their eyes. Maybe. Delusions can be fun!  Plus, it was a fantastic excuse to get my beef on weck and wings! I may make it a routine, better food than I expected!

You are victim of your own grandiosity. The Spanish speaking housekeepers most likely talking and snickering among themselves about their strutting rooster gringo employer who believes his appeal is an uncontrollable gift that spellbinds those in his proximity.

Yeah, I never got the opportunity to thank you for laughing at my discomfort. Couldn’t ya even offer a guy some napkins?  

[Rocket94]

When I lived out west, it was always difficult to find good wings. Several establishments will try with their own renditions. One guy said to me: "You people from Buffalo with your hot wings."
