24 karat is good mixed with hot. I like to get a few of each and alternate. One hot, one 24 karat. For the record, 24 karat is just a cheezy name for sweet and sour and you can get this flavor of wing at a lot of places, not just Randy's. I think a lot of people are under the impression that it's some kind of miracle homemade sauce Randy's invented.

Not to be a prick southhampton, but the "suicide" wings at Randy's are actually called "Hotter than hell". I always get the hot, but i'm gonna man up one of these weeks and go for the hotter than hell.
Within the past year i have had wings at both Anchor Bar and Duff's in Buffalo. They were delicious from both places, but i still think Randy's are the best i've ever had.

Best wings for you people that really know Buffalo. Not Duffs/Not Anchor Bar Gabriels Gate in Allentown NY. Now you've gone and made me hungry. Gabriels Gate has GREAT chicken wings and the rest of their food is delicious too. Great steak sandwhiches. I've eaten there on many a hungover Sunday. The last time was right before the Shamrock run. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned this joint before, but if any of you ever roll through a town called Naples in the southern end of Stupid Canadaigua lake, make sure and stop in a place called The Middletown Tavern for their chicken wings. They have a honey BBQ flavor there that is phenomenal. The place where a few of us on this board work just opened up a new cafeteria a few weeks back. Yesterday I tried out their chicken wings and was pleasantly surprised. They were whole wings, which means you get the drum, the wing, and that little tip on the end. That tip piece is very underrated and there's a lot of flavor there. It makes me sad when I see people throw it out. I could go on about chicken wings all day. I'm going to have to get some for dinner now. |

I wasn't impressed by the Anchor Bar wings, but I LOVED Duffs. There was also this subshop near my friend's old apartment that I can't remember where or what the name of it was.
Of course, I have a soft spot for S&G wings...especially ten cent wing night. Two dozen wings for $2.40!!! Joe Tedesco was best friend's with one of the owners' son, and S&G would always whip up a special batch for Joe. One time, Pat "Bear" Kelly challenged Joey T. to a wing-eating contest. Now, Joe was the undisputed King of the Wings and, in fact, I made like $50 off a bunch of freshmen that Joe couldn't polish off a Pudgie's Party Pack by himself. Anyway, Joe called S&G and spoke to Greg personally and asked for the hottest, most insane, peel-off-the-paint wings he possibly could make. A few minutes later, we're up on 2nd shay when we smell something that we originally thought was tear-gas, because our eyes started to water. We go into the lounge and sure enough, there's the S&G guy there. No lie, people were actually fleeing because the smell was so powerful.
Anyway, Joe and Bear engaged in their contest. Joe kept on downing one after another, while Bear barely got through two. Bear, to give him credit, refused to tap out, while Joe polished off his dozen in no time. Grabbing the wax paper, Joe T. starts licking it. "Bear, I can do this all night. I can call Greg for another dozen. Wanna do shots of tobasco sauce?"
Bear couldn't finish his wings, but refused to say "I Quit." There's a great picture of Bear and Joe holding cold bottles of beer on their tounges, another great college memory immortalized.

Cosmo, I drove past that Italian joint on Niagara St. you told me about a while back. While I believe you that its delicious, I don't think I feel comfortable stopping there without a bulletproof vest, black face paint (you know, so people think I'm black) and at least 3 guns.

Barrel House is up for sale FYI...never had their wings
Cosmo, thanks for the back up on Gabriels Gate. Never have I ever seen bigger wings.
SDot. Niagara Street = Death. I like to rock Metallica out of my 95 Nissan Maxima though when I drive thru there just to see what kid of looks I get. But I agree with you, once west of Richmond, DO NOT STOP YOUR CAR.

So unless Cell or Android 17 is hanging out on the corner of Niagra and Lafayette, you shouldn't be scared. Go in there and get yourself an eggplant parmesean with a side of spaghetti. You'll thank me later. |

Donny was thinking of selling the Barrel House 3 or 4 years ago. Said the special taxes the city was hitting them with were too much.

Cosmo, what's the name of the Italian joint. I remember going with my parents to a small place down on Niagara that was part bar, part restaurant. I think it was called Santeseros or something.
