The Wing In Review
Who has the Best Buffalo Wings in Boston? Sadly, we at Shandeh.com have spent more time in more bars eating more Buffalo Wings than is probably healthy. The good news is that you can use our artery-clogging gluttony as your guide to The Best Buffalo Wings in Boston!
While Dizzle and I were focusing on what made wings delicious, and who had Boston’s best wing, Bill “El Wingador” Simmons, was focusing on how many wings he could fit in his ample gut in one sitting. (I am guessing we don’t have the same doctor.)
The Wing In Review: Hooters
The time has finally come for your friends at Shandeh.com to review Hooters’ Buffalo wings. Being two married men who aren’t generally into such hypersexual establishments, Sasso and I were hesitant to review wings from a place like Hooters. Buffalo wings are however, Hooters’ second claim to fame – though a distant second at that. [...]
The Wing in Review: Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery
After stumbling upon surprisingly delicious Buffalo wings at Texas Roadhouse, Sasso and I decided to try another chain restaurant, Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery. Rock Bottom is located on Stewart Street in Boston’s Theater District, an area that used to be known as the Combat Zone. It was a part of town where one could [...]
The Wing in Review: Texas Roadhouse
While conducting important business on Boston’s North Shore (the Route 1 batting cages) Sasso and I found ourselves lost in Everett and in need of a bite to eat. In the middle of a strip mall parking lot, like a meaty island in an ocean of hot asphalt, sat the barbeque chain Texas Roadhouse. Your [...]
The Wing in Review: Sunset Grill and Tap
Tucked deep inside the Boston University ghetto of Allston, between used furniture stores and cheap (and I mean cheap) fast food, is the Sunset Grill and Tap. Before even walking into the bar, you can see a theme developing. The front windows are covered with neon signs which lead you to the entryway plastered with Best [...]
Bullshitting your way through Oysters
If any sea creature were to be unfit for human consumption, you would think that it would be the lowly oyster. Oysters are essentially the filters of the ocean. Their shells look like a mangled mess and unlike their cousin the scallop, even the meat of oysters can look pretty unappetizing. People have found many [...]
The Wing in Review: Crossroads Pub
Everyone needs a good, “Local” as the Irish say. A Local is a neighborhood pub where old men drink their beers just a few stools down the bar from guys young enough to be their grandkids. What is it about a Local that can bridge this generational gap? Mellow atmosphere, sports on the televisions and [...]
The Wing in Review: The Cactus Club
Located in the Back Bay, The Cactus Club is an upscale watering hole where Boston’s College co-eds can drink away their trust funds one margarita at a time. But on a Thursday in early June, with school out for the summer, the college kids were nowhere to be seen and the bar was filled with [...]
The Wing in Review: Lucky’s Lounge
I hate to use the term ‘Hidden Gem’ as it has become cliché, but Lucky’s Lounge is literally hidden and pretty fantastic so I will. Lucky’s is tucked away off the beaten path in the Fort Point Chanel area. You will find no sign or awning out front, just a few steps that lead into [...]
The Wing in Review: The Whiskey Priest
In Boston, The Whiskey Priest is the Seaport District’s latest Irish pub and grill. The bar has an extensive food menu, a more extensive beer menu and an even more extensive whiskey menu. But man cannot live off of whiskey and beer alone, well, not for very long anyway. For us wing-aholics…
