Wingitt-The House of Wings

I love chicken wings. I love them in all sizes, no discrimination. Some like them really big, some like them boneless. Me, I enjoy them all. Give them to me coated in Buffalo sauce, and I'll be one happy girl.

I stumbled upon Wingitt quite by accident, when I went to pick up flowers from Just Flowers next door (A beautiful little flower shop with an amazing variety, by the way). It's a little shop, nothing to boast of, but has made the most of its space. Spotlessly clean, there is a small seating area, with cute red metal buckets serving as napkin holders and a small bottle of Dettol hand sanitizer on each table.

Wingitt has a large variety of sauces to go along with the classic and boneless wings it serves, the details of which I will go into in a bit. There are also sides such as wedges, chicken strips and a variety of fries which I have yet to try. You can get 4, 8, 16 or 24 wings with a choice of 1 or 4 flavors. There are also different combos, which don't have boneless wings but one can choose sauces of their choice.

The order taker was very helpful and made it easier for me to go with Combo 2 (16 wings, 2 fries, 2 flavors for sauces and 2 buns), along with which I ordered a few extra sauces. I use the word 'few' lightly. My choice of sauces were:

1. Buffalo
2. Ranch
3. Spicy Garlic
4. Hot Pepper
5. Cheese

Since the wings and fries were being made from scratch, I had to wait for 15-20 minutes but it was worth the wait. Since Wingitt's outlet is but a 5 minute drive from my house, the food was as hot as when it was made. The wings were succulent, tender juicy morsels of perfection. For some, they might be too small. For me, they were perfect. All of the sauces were brilliantly done and complimented the wings well. My favorite sauces were the Buffalo, Spicy Garlic and Hot Pepper. Can you tell I like my spicy food? The fries were as they should be; crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside. The buns were also good. Would've been nice slathered with butter, but I resisted since I was already full on the wings.

Wingitt is definitely a great addition to Karachi's list of eateries, and now I have a new place to satiate the wings cravings whenever I get them.

Mandi House, Grand Launch

I'll be real with you. I have actually never really been fond of mandi. Pulao with tender meat pieces is something I was born eating. I didn't understand the fuss about it. You know how different food fads have trended wherever you live? Chinese, Pan Asian, burgers, Continental cuisines area all different from the local palate. Pulao aur boti toh mai ghar pe bhi kha sakti hun. So I never got on to the mandi house fad. And the servings at these places are huge, bordering on wasteful. I wasn't going to go there with just one or two friends to eat mandi. No Sirree Bob. Mandis are meant for at least 3-5 people to enjoy, depending on hunger levels. Recently I was invited to the grand launch of the new Mandi House on main Shaheed-e-Millat's now populated restaurant strip. The place was easy to find since it's so prominently visible from the main road. The restaurant itself is made really well, with a waiting area and seating space on both floors. Options for dining in ...

Golden Dragonization

I’ve always loved desi Chinese food. I’ve been raised on desi Chinese food. The more sweetish side of things, with so many spices that one’s left wondering whether to eat or wipe one’s nose or eat one’s food. But oh, so good.  Thus, I convinced the family to order Golden Dragon tonight, even though they were most reluctant to order from a new place. Since my father and I are both allergic to ajino moto, we requested that no ajino moto be added in our food. Stuck to the basics, since it was my first time ordering. We ordered the hot and sour soup, hot and spicy wontons, crispy beef, hot and spicy chicken, chicken in oyster sauce, and vegetable fried rice. The first thing we got to open was the wontons. All the food was steaming, amazingly hot. Since Abu was in the kitchen with me, the first thing he did was make a face and say, ‘Aye hai! Steamed wontons hamaray matlab k thori hain.’ I took a bite, then forced him to take a bite. When I raised my eyebrows at him in quest...

Almost a Year Later at RAK's Table

 Hello darkness, my old friend! While I know that blogposts aren't exactly the preferred social media communication method nowadays, something keeps pulling me back to this baby of mine that I can't seem to let go of, even though last I posted was September 4, 2024.  I also feel like this particular culinary experience of mind deserved a blogpost of its own, it was THAT good! It wasn't just the food, but the company with which I enjoyed each morsel, which came about thanks to my foodie friend Sadia Safdar, who kindly thought of me when Rida Alam Khan, head chef at Yazu and RAK's Table requested a taste-testing of some choice dishes from her yet-to-be-opened restaurant. The panel consisted of OG food lovers, not just bloggers, but people who genuinely have a passion for food and can taste the nuanced notes and secret ingredients in perfectly crafted recipes.  Considering I had never been to Yazu, I was quite impressed by the entrance, very tasteful, just like the food as...
