E-Town Bar and Grill

Etna, PA


Order: 10 hot

Better than average size and cooked perfectly – crispy edges and coated very well in the sauce, but not too saucy. Hot is a bit run of the mill F&B. Check out the Hot Ranch, very remisicent of Eric Jr at BBT2. Would order these again with no qualms.

Fatheads

East Carson Street Pittsburgh, PA


This place is packed and rockin, let's hope the wings are too. Now, I hate crowds, or at least crowded places, so these are the lengths I'll go to for the love of the wing. Speaking of which, the menu says the Fathead original flavor is "their first and their best." Let's put it to the test.

They show up, rather disappointing because they are kinda smallish. Not overly small, but when you read reviews saying "big and meaty", your saliva starts going. These, well, they are ho hum. They smell good, though, some nice spice tones in there. Let's dig in.

Kooky sauce. It's got a hit of sweet, but then it bumps you with the heat. Nice flavor, I really dig it. The wings are coated well but they could use a tad more sauce. This sauce is so familar, though. Seems ketchup based and reminiscent of somewhere, where, though? I got it, House of Lee sauce with more spice.

All in all, average size, average prep, great sauce. Need to come back for the hotter than hot flavor at some point.
