As the saying goes, there aint no thang like a chicken wing. And we would have to agree. Ignoring the Food 394 Health 111
fact that this little hooked arm of party-food fame is largely so good because of its chicken skin-to-meat Restaurants 350 James Street 106

The Verdict 255 Beauty 97
Public | Fried to perfection, Publics spicy chicken wings are the ideal accompaniment to a drink (and, Cafes 232 Art 87
luckily, the Public gang know a thing or two about making a fine drink, as well). Their char-sui pork ribs Fashion 226 Fortitude Valley 83
arent too shabby either. Bars 224 Christmas 71
This Week In Brisbane 165 Close Encounters 67
Yard Bird Ale House | If you are after a bona-fide, American-style wing, you cant pass up Brunswick Events 161 Women's Fashion 63
Streets Yard Bird. Served with the obligatory blue cheese dressing and cucumber sticks, these spicy Two Minutes With
suckers come in three levels of heat, with the hottest wing on offer aptly titled, The Death Sentence, Tastemakers 143
just to give you an indication of spiciness. The team at Yard Bird take their wings very seriously, so
seriously, in fact, that they hold a comp (called Lord of the Wings) to see who can get through the most
Death Sentence wings in one sitting. Chicken wings AND punsthis is our kind of place.

Gerards Bistro | While its always a challenge to decide which share plates well pluck from the menu
at Gerards, one selection is not up for debate: The wings, rubbed in spices and served with kishk
yoghurt, are an absolute must.

The Smoke BBQ | The Smokes Buffalo Chicken wings come in two delectable heat levels, original
and blue hot, and whichever you choose youll not be disappointed. Served with blue cheese dressing,
The Smokes wings are the ideal starter to a full-on ribs fest. Grab a napkin, cause things are going to
get sticky.

Carolina Kitchen | The US-fest continues at Coorparoo favourite, Carolina Kitchen. This venue has
fully embraced the Americana theme, with cheeseburgers, New York fries, ribs, and chilli dogs on the
menu. If youre not tempted by their original American Hot Wing (what, are you crazy?), you may want
to try their wings with BBQ sauce.

Super Whatnot | Super Whatnot stands apart from the rest for being pretty darn cool. This CBD
watering hole is like a little slice of NYC, tucked behind an unassuming door in Burnett Lane. The bar
menu, inspired by The Americas, brings a fresh take on nachos, burritos, hot dawgs, and, our
favourite, Super Whatnots Rasta chicken. These drumettes are fried in a crunchy, peppery Jamaican
coating and served with Bob sauce (No, we dont know whats in the Bob sauce either, but when it
tastes this good you dont ask questions.) Friday night?

Newstead Brewery and Tipplers Taps are two glaring ommissions.

The southern fried chicken wings at Yard Bird are to die for. Really delicious and
crunchy mix of spices that will just make you drool. Can't recommend them enough!
