Welcome to the Official "Wingaddicts Westchester Wing Trail" where we blaze a saucy path for chicken wing enthusiasts in the Westechester, NY area! We consulted with lots of the top area foodies and wing fans to come up with this amazing list of wing spots you simply MUST
Read More"Would you like to see the dessert menu?” It’s a question usually posed to me after I’ve eaten a 20-ounce steak, baked potato and token vegetable, which followed either a sausage and broccoli rabe or candied slab bacon appetizer. As a true Wingaddict, though, the entire word “dessert” has taken on an entirely different meaning to me lately. I...
Read MoreDo you classify Korean fried chicken restaurants as “chicken wing destinations?” Do you go out of your way to satisfy a wing craving at any one of the many Korean chicken spots that are popping up all over the country? Maybe you should. As we continue to research and explore all things chicken wings, we’re noticing many Korean spots being written...
Read More"Never Again." That lie we all promise ourselves. I do remember reciting it numerous times in my youth - usually into the echo of a porcelain toilet bowl - after a night of too much alcohol. It’s been a while since I uttered those words aloud. Well, until Sunday; the morning after my Wingaddicts partners and I were judges at the Hudson Valley...

In 2023 we started a crusade to better chronicle our journey toward eating 1,000 different chicken wing flavors (fairly certain that no living human has accomplished this feat to date). Frankly, the more...

While my intention isn’t necessarily to ruffle feathers (well, maybe literally), these are the kinds of things that come into my mind as I sit around and think about chicken wings 24 hours a day. Why would I suggest such a...
Read MoreAs we prepare to consume our 700th chicken wing flavor (on our quest to eat 1,000), its fun to look back at the journey which started just over 1,300 days ago. Like most normal(?) human beings, Doni, Ryan and I started our wing enjoyment many years ago with traditional hot wings. The good ol’ hot sauce-and-butter recipe that was born at Anchor...
Read MoreAs often happens, a spirited discussion in "Wingaddicts Community" (Facebook’s largest network of chicken wing enthusiasts), inspired me to look into the origins of Nashville Hot Chicken. Is it a cooking style? Is it a flavor? Is there a debate? And, as usual, there’s a story. Chicken wing enthusiasts well know the tale of how Buffalo wings were...
Read MoreBlue cheese or ranch? If you’ve been asked this question, chances are you just ordered a plate of chicken wings. That, or you’re looking at an online wing survey or meme and quickly pouncing to defend your preference. Wing enthusiasts, for some reason, love to ponder things like: What state has the best
