The Chef, The Boy, Biggie Smalls, The Godfather, & The Booey
Dear WingZ,
I am not quite sure how we ended up spending an afternoon together but we did. Your menu and bar were both large and overwhelming and void of any sustenance. After moments of deliberation of which processed/ or genetically modified food would suffice I decided on the Macho Nachoz. I look back now and wonder WHY God WHY?
My friend foe WingZ…I must inform you. Nacho’s, spelled with a Z or an S should not come out of a can. Never. Ever. Nachos are also made with vegetables like lettuce and tomato’s. S or Z aside, they are made up of more than just canned beef and shredded cheese. Leave it to Uncle M to lead us to the only place in the world that buys their beef canned. Three days later and oh my! I’ll leave it at that.
Love
CW
I feel you, moving here from Philadelphia and trying to find a suitable place to get wings and a pint of Guinness and a place that ACTUALLY makes it’s own blue cheese dressing is like trying to find the Holy Grail. (we’ve given up)
Why are the cooks and chefs in this area so uninspired or afraid to let go of the 1970′s convenience products ? And don’t get me started on ALL of the chain slop houses, don’t the citizens of Ohio have any self respect to find a local mom & pop restaurant that serves them freshly prepared food from local farms and proper chefs / cooks ?
I actually think that many Ohioans have been moving away from chain restaurants. The support shown for independent restaurants has grown over the past few years especially in Cleveland. I know many chefs, scratch that, pretty much ever chef I know uses and prefers local ingredients over mass produced any day of the week. Change takes time but I think that we are on the right path.
I think that Cleveland as a whole needs to focus on the POSITIVE aspects of food and restaurants and farming in this area. The more positivity we bring to great food the more interest will be peaked. And those people who think beef in a can tastes good might be inspired to hit up a restaurant that actually serves 100% Ohio beef .
Love the sweatshirt
