Wilson’s Special Blend
One only has to eat Wilson’s Honey Hot wings one time to realize that these crispy boi’s aren’t ordinary! Firstly, his wings are doused in golden, thick, aromatic sauce. Visually, upon opening the requisite Styrofoam container that all good (ahem, Domino’s, ahem) chicken wing spots have, one sets their eyes upon this beauty….

The red tint on top of the wings is an Asian spice that is atypical on Honey Hot wings, yet is aromatic and wonderful! His wings are slightly above average in size, and his sauce is sweet, spicy, and delicious. You’ll want to know that, though his sauce is good, he could improve upon the flavor palette to balance out the almost overly sugary sweetness with his unique spice.
In addition, the fry on the outside of the wings could be done better, and more consistently. You’ll be interested to know that in the double-digit times that this author has visited Wilson, he has yet to botch a batch of wings. However, his wings usually exhibit differing qualities of exterior crunchiness and juiciness, dragging down his score. The tasty chicken at Wilson’s Wings ‘n Things deserve a score of 6.7/10.0.

Improvement
Look, you’ll want to know that this author likes Wilson, but someone has to separate the wheat from the chaff. His fries are lacking. They are straight cut, slightly under-cooked, and under-seasoned every time. Crinkle fries are the best for wings, and these fries, though not the worst fries imaginable, are from from perfect.
The one saving grace about Wilson’s fries are their size, which is large enough to act as an edible spoon one may use to funnel his tasty wing sauce straight into one’s mouth. However, in this author’s opinion the fries should be, at the very least, fried until crispy and golden brown. It’s no use crying over spilled milk. Therefore, if Wilson were to cut his fries the preferred method, cook them until done, and be generous with his seasoning, he could see a drastic increase in this score! In conclusion, these fries deserve an improvable 5.3/10.0.
