Well, the reasoning is quite simple: Salt & Pepper are a pretty basic flavour, and if you want to know how a places wings are, they pretty much ALL have s/p so they're a good comparison platform.Grapeman wrote:Replace GLer with Fitty and I know what you mean
If a place can do salt & pepper right, then I'll probably order something else the next time we go there (for example at Bo's I'll sometimes get the roasted red pepper, and occasionally buffalo, though rare). Some places (ie Canadian brewhouse) I've tried other flavours and not really cared for them, but the salt/pepper is still good so I'll go for that (though their roasted red isn't bad either... it's slightly meh compared to Bo's though). It's worth noting btw the brewhouse Dill pickle were very Meh, but the ones at Sport Central were pretty good based on the one of yours I tried.
I also prefer dry wing flavours over sauces - things like honey/garlic, teriyaki, etc taste fine and all, but they're messy and kind of annoying to eat - this also partially limits the available flavours.
and thus, my wise words of chicken.
