This is one of those places where I’ve been meaning to go to for ages and before the lock down, it was always so busily impossible to get a table that I never got to go. But I kept hearing good things about it.

I finally had a chance to taste their food recently during lock down of all times and I can see why they’re so popular.

Wings has started doing an online booking system during Coronavirus lock down where you order ahead from Monday of that week for a timed collection slot between Thursday and Saturday that week, or until the food runs out. This also meant I had a guaranteed slot to try their delicious Asian fried chicken.

It works rather well, you simply make your order online on their website like you would any online food order, select a day and time slot before paying. When you turn up at the venue, it’s all very well signposted where you’re supposed to pick your order up from (the door on the right). The white, smaller door on the left is for buying your favourite tipple from the small bar selection, served in what looked like 2 pint milk bottles.

We ordered the Korean burger, Malaysian burger, chicken wings, Dirty Chicken fries and some kimchi slaw.

I can probably give the kimchi slaw a miss but everything else exceeded my expectations. When I saw the burgers I had an initial pang of fear that it may be yet another sloppy, dirty burger that seems to be all the rage at the moment where you cannot hope to eat one of these burgers without the sauces and juice going everywhere.

To my surprise, the burgers held together really well. The Korean burger consisted of a fried piece of chicken dressed in a sticky Korean sauce which I think is gojujang based, with a bit of the kimchi slaw (maybe if you’re getting the Korean burger anyway then don’t bother with the separate kimchi slaw). The chilliness of the sauce worked very well in the burger.

In contrast, the Malaysian burger was a fantastically crispy piece of fried chicken with peanut sauce. Most importantly, the fried chicken remained crispy throughout. A classic flavour combination that you cannot go wrong with.

It was on the chicken dirty fries that we got to taste their saracha mayo and it was a very well blended flavour of chilliness (from the saracha), a little bit of tanginess which I can only assume is from lemon juice or something, and mayo. This sauce was doused over a piece of katsu chicken over fries. (You can choose other sauces for your dirty fries)

All in all, it was a lovely bit of normality being able to try a new eatery again. I just hope I’ll be able to get a table once all of this is over. For now, cluck and collect!

Happy eating! 🤤🤤🤤🤤
