Pat Bertoletti rates Windy City wings
(Via Chicagoist) Pat Bertoletti reviewed wings from nine Chicago restaurants for Time Out Chicago. Bertoletti’s top choice:
Twisted Spoke
(501 N Ogden Ave, 312-666-1500)
THE PLACE Don’t settle for Hooters’ softcore family-friendly porn. Get the real thing at the Spoke’s Saturday-night “Smut and Eggs” showing.
THE VERDICT “These are smoky like roasted chicken. This is the best sauce I’ve tasted, really rich, nice salt and sweet balance. Maybe there’s some chipotle in there. The skin is really crispy. I’d rather lick my fingers clean than use a Wet-Nap.”
In other Chicago wing news, tickets are now on sale for the WingFest that will take place on February 24 A wing eating contest will be held during that event. In previous years, the contest had separate divisions for men and women.
