we are thinking of a wing hunt for the winter
eg,
once every 2 weeks we go for wings
10 stops on the west
10 stops on the east
winning location from each side go head to head at the end to see who's wings are the best!!
please list places that you have had wings at b4, that you thought were good
or places that you heard were good
if i could get an eastside rep to handle the stuff on the east, we got enough guys on the west!

locations
1.
The Place: Allen's, 143 Danforth Ave., 416-463-3086
The Wings: Manhattan Capon Wings, eight for $8.95. At once crispy and wet, and doused with sauce.
The Side: "Blue cheese dressing" is really sour cream topped with blue and parsley.
The Sauce: A tasty yet woolly mix (Vinegar? Worcestershire? Honey?). Proprietor John Maxwell fesses up to just one ingredient: tamarind.
The Verdict: Subversively appealing.
2.
The Place: Bow and Arrow Pub, 1954 Yonge St., 416-487-2036
The Wings: Sea Salt and Pepper Wings, 10 for $9.99 (half price after 5 p.m. on Monday). Promised: shakings of salt and fresh-cracked black pepper. Delivered: S&P, plus a hint of KFC.
The Side: Fresh carrot and celery strips in the basket, plus a sidecar of lacklustre blue cheese dressing.
The Sauce: None.
The Verdict: Highly addictive; satisfies like a fast-food fix.
3.
The Place: Peter's Cajun Creole Pizza, 181 Parliament St., 416-368-8099
The Wings: Cajun Chicken Wings, 12 for $8.75. Deep-fried and sprinkled with Cajun seasoning salt.
The Side: Nothing but napkins.
The Sauce: Straight-up Frank's RedHot barbecue or, for the heat-averse, honey-garlic.
The Verdict: Anomalous on a menu of gourmet pizzas and pastas, the wings have become Peter’s sleeper hit.
4.
The Place: Duff's Famous Wings, 1604 Bayview Ave., 416-544-0100
The Wings: Famous Wings, 10 for $8.95. Meaty, crisp-skinned and hot two ways.
The Side: Pristine celery sticks and delicious creamy dill or blue cheese dressing.
The Sauce: Measured in Scoville units: 0 = plain, 10,000 = medium, 500,000 = death (a bright, vinegary ecstasy). 850,000 triggers Armageddon.
The Verdict: The real deal. Duff’s N.Y. parent got into the wing game in 1969. This lone northern outpost has history and great taste on its side.
