Wings

It’s all about the chicken wings

3 Brothers, want to adopt another?

Mrs. Wing Zombie and I have started frequenting 3 Brothers on a probably way to regular basis. You see, since moving into our current utilitarian hovel a little over a year ago, 3 Brothers is the closest good “sit down” kinda eatery to our house. If we were the kind of people who actually sought out physical exertion we could even walk there with little (yet more than we are willing to expend) effort.

As you know by now, we work fairly hard at using our hard earned “eaten’ out” dollars to support our local businesses. We do our best to More >

Roosters: A fun casual joi…holy crap, our foods here!

Roosters is a semi-local Ohio chain kinda place. When they first came into town everyone was excited (yes, we are over flowing with fat bastards…present company included), “Another wing joint!”. The first time I stepped in here it was like walking into a Hooters without the Hooters which is funny because I’ve taken to referring to Ohio as “Hooters the State” (thank you Mike Polk). Inside, they really have ripped off the Hooters look but given the nature of Ohio, the ladies are dressed very conservatively…pretty much just like any other sports bar.

I need to say that I have tried More >

The Anchor Bar: A visit to the holy land

Everyone believes in something. All of the great historical belief systems have a place that holds a significant reverence. For some it may be Mecca, Israel or Varanasi. For me, that deserving reverence was established on October 3, 1964 at The Anchor Bar in Buffalo, NY when Teressa Belissimo dropped a mess of wings into the deep fryer. On that glorious night of all nights, Teressa unknowingly gave birth to what has become my blogging muse….the Buffalo Wing!

When I got a phone call a few months ago from Ms. Zombie Jr. letting me know that she would be spending her More >

It’s Cleats….uh, wait… It’s Jerseys???

Mrs. Zombie and I decided several weeks ago that Tuesday night was our “goin’ out” night. Each Tuesday night we come home from work, put on some comfy clothes and head out for dinner together, just the two of us.  Of course, when we eat at home it’s just the two of us with the addition of my PIGI tasting partner Dakota but sometimes it’s nice to actually go out where other people can see us….you know, it our gift to them. Well, around these here parts…Monday or Tuesday night pretty much means wing night.  Yep, just about every place More >

The Winking Lizard – Strangely enough, it’s not what I first thought.

One of the first wing joints that I ever went to when I first started my business visits to the sunny lap of luxury that is Canton, Ohio  was “ The Winking Lizard”.  Yeah, the first time someone asked me if I wanted to go to “The Winking Lizard” I informed him that while I respected and supported his alternative lifestyle it wasn’t something that I was interested in personally. Of course I was still a bit hessitant when he informed me that it was a sports bar…. But again I made my statement about his alternative life style.  At More >
