I should disagree with you on the New Edinburg pub wings! I've sampled wings all over the world and I found these to have prefectly crispy - meaty and saucy. I don't like large, soft skinned wings
I must have gone on an off-day at the NEP. I just wasn't impressed with the wings, and they got a low score due to my scoring system. I agree they were crispy, but for $10 I need either a large wing or a lot of wings, and I got neither. But the service I got and the other food I saw people eating that day looked pretty good. But to each his own. Thanks for commenting.
Lord of the wings. Love the site..
I've been in Ottawa now for about a year, testing out some of your choices of wings spots in Ottawa. Can you give me a Top 5 wing location for the best quality?
( size and flavor ) for students on a budget but still looking for a great wing at a low price...
Thanks
Donny T
Hey Donny T, thanks for checking out the blogs!
For keeping things cheap, wing nights are a key, unfortunately wing prices are on the rise in general: http://lordofthewings.blogspot.com/2007/03/mini-wing-guide-2006.html
As for my top 5 - that's tough!
Here are some and in no particular order:
PJ Quigleys, Georgetown Sports Pub, Pub 101, Honest Lawyer, Wild Wings & Local Heroes.
E-mail me and let me know where you go (my list or anywhere you find) and what you liked/disliked
lordofthewingsblog@gmail.com
Cheers!
