KW Wings Place
I'm mainly looking at JohnnieH/DrTyore/Moose/Itsame/Zithal for help here, but anyone is welcomed to contribute.
With the declining quality of Morty's wings, I am looking to spend more money elsewhere and looking for suggestions

Sorry to hear Morty's is declining because that was my alternative spot when my fav place in Cambridge shut down.
Since were going to get some varying positions on this I propose a pub/wing crawl. Has to be after the 23rd of December though. Who's in?
Beaver and Bulldog is located on Hespler Rd. near the SHoppers Drug Mart. They also have a very good selection of premium beers such as Guiness, Smithwicks, Caffrey's etc on tap.
In town I would tend to agree with NiK. Although I have also enjoyed McMullen's wings at times, they changed their recipe a few times though so not really sure what they are doing these days.
stp
A dude I do karate with told me about a place, but I forget.. I'll 2x check

Note: Last I heard they will be closing in December, so the quality of the place might be shot.
The Wednesday Night WingDing at Ethels Lounge is good too.
Franklin & Avenue Road.
$3.99/lbs Wed eat in (drink purchase)
Yeah I wanted to try these guys so I'm up for wings on Tues at Beaver and Bulldog. 5:30?
If you can do a bit later..like 7 or so I'll be down.
Anyone else interested?
Place by me is good, Kitch one should be similar
Wild Wing
I tried the Kitchener one soon after it opened and I was kinda disapointed. Paper trays for apps and Plastic cups for pop? Not what I was looking for. Althought the wings weren't bad they certainly didn't make me want to overlook everything else.
Been to the kitchener one a few times now... it's now my new favourite. Following behind are Caseys then Mortys then Moose Winooskis (haven't tried Moose wings in over a year though).
Wings are pub grub... they could be served on kleenexs for all I care. But I usually do takeout there.
How could I forget Moose Winooskis? They have great wings!
I enjoy making my own wings. I know it's a pain in the ass and you don't get the atmosphere of a pub, but playing with sauce recipes and frying your own I find very satisfying.
I'd be willing to host a night of "Wing Making" and then maybe a poker game? After everybody scrubs down of course
I'm still headed here tmr if anyone wants to meet up.
I'm way up for JohnnieH wings. I used to like doing them myself too but the grocery stores charge an arm and a wing for them now.
Farmer's Market bro!
I'll look to host something early in '09........
Get there before 6 pm or else you will be waiting. Service was crazy quick. We were eating within 10 min of ordering. Wings were ok, not outstanding. The wings are all breaded, with a large variety of sauces (1 per lb). The tandoori sauce was mediocre. The dragon sauce was ok but needed to be hotter. The chipotle BBQ sauce was good.
It's not cheap. 3 lbs of wings is $30. Good thing Tues is 1/2 price, which is still not a great price for wings. Pop was $3 and 12 oz draft $3.60. WTF? You know what they want to sell. The onion rings were good but $8 is seriously fucked for onion rings. My kid liked his child's pizza, he ate the entire thing. $6, including drink and ice cream.
Next up is Crabby Joe's, which has .25 wings on Tues.
There is something so insanely repulsive about watching you tear meat off the bone and get all disgusting and messy. And they smell like rotting ass.
QUALIFIER: Though I say this as a vegetarian, I'm not just base-hating meat eaters here, apparently I make awesome ribs, stews and roasts and I try to pimp bacon off on pretty much anyone I cook for- because I like the smell of it frying.
Wings are the most repulsive main stream food around, and you all look like hillbillies eating them...even Wes.
sorry I tried to wait until the bulk of this thread was over to bitch.. /rant
I guess I would have to agree, though I don't really find them very repulsive at all, because of their deliciousness. On a repulsivity scale of one to ten, if wings are 10, where are ribs? (since you say you make them).
and they don't stink...seriously, I wish meat eaters could smell wings and ground beef properly...you have no idea how gross they are.
but ribs are up there...say 6-7
FYP
Which shape do you prefer? Kinda like a banana or so straight you could snap a chalk line on it?
+1 the beaver and bulldog at dundas and dixie is one of my favorite wing places.
