Eye of the Beholder

Tommy, June 19 2023

Does it matter to you how your wings look when they show up on the table?

Tommy, April 23 2023

We’ve long maintained that the word “best” is purely subjective and that ranking and rating chicken wings and wing restaurants is futile (and arrogant) because everybody has a valid opinion. However, reporting on what is “most popular” is fact based; like science. And today, I fancy myself a

SORRY: WE'RE PERMANENTLY CLOSED

Tommy, December 19 2022

“Open a restaurant,” they said. “It will be fun,” they said. And sometimes it is. But the not-so-secret truth is that 60% of new restaurants don’t survive their first year in business. After four years, 80% are finished. You’ve probably heard of the 80/20 rule. It still applies but the odds are
