I've heard friends from Quezon City rave about Wingstop, a Texas-based fast food chain that…read morespecializes in chicken wings and tenders. A few weeks ago, I discovered that a branch has finally opened in Makati. At the streetside section of Glorietta 2, directly facing Landmark, it's hard to miss the place. What with a conspicuously designed name printed on its glass window and right above the entrance. Finding a seat is also not a problem as the dining area is huge and there are plenty of tables and chairs. I liked Wingstop even before I tasted their food. The reason: Their food choices are few. You'll not be overwhelmed by different options or types of food. Their menu revolves around chicken wings. Since their Makati branch is fairly new, I imagined that customers would take a long time to decide what to order. But it didn't take long for the people ahead of me to finish their transactions at the counter. It could be that everyone had already tried Wingstop and knew what to eat or it could be that 7:00pm is not a good time to eat wings (are you kidding me?). Since I was on my way home, I decided to have my orders in a takeaway bag. I simply wanted to sample their wings so I got a 7-piece order of wings with two flavors - Garlic Parmesan and Louisiana Rub. Both taste great but I liked the Louisiana Rub better because of its sweet and mild spicy flavor.

AMBIENCE Restaurant is situated where Jamba Juice used to be…read moreand it also has a second floor. When we entered, the entire first floor was packed and lines were long for ordering and claiming. The crowd eventually lessened as several minutes went by but there were still a lot of customers. FOOD We tried the 3PC Chicken Tenders and the 1PC Chicken and both had different textures especially on the coating. Tenders were typically good but the Bold BBQ dip was the star flavor in this combo; tasted really good! 1PC had tender white meat and a really thick coating, which tasted good but made the chicken actually look smaller. Biscuit was just as good as before and still somewhat plain, which I totally appreciate. At first, I thought the flavor was infused into the biscuit but turns out you put it in like you would with butter. Our flavor was honey but the experience of placing it in the biscuit was more interesting than the actual flavor. Spaghetti had a sweet and subtly unique taste. Fries had a nice and crispy texture. Among our orders, I still think only about those good and plain biscuits. SERVICE We had to wait quite awhile because there were lots of customers, and one number was called several times sometime before ours. The customer of that number never came and I was able to eventually get our order. I'd like to suggest that they use a TV screen (unless they have one upstairs already) or a pager to call out the number especially for customers upstairs.

I understand that the branch was full during lunch time but improvements could be made to make their system more efficient. These times offer the best opportunities to test the efficiency of your cooking and serving time. I see good things happening for this place because the pricing was excellent and the chicken we had wasn't so bad for the price range either. Pricing is actually student-friendly and to our amusement, we were the only ones that weren't students during our visit. A nice lady, probably the owner, gave us a free sample of banana cake. My first impression was that it was for the long wait. The flavor was so-so but it had a nice texture. We also tried one of their ice blended beverages but it wasn't cool that options were limited. And the one we tried took a very long time to be served. It even arrived after our food, which I found very confusing. And as for the flavor, I'll probably give it a passing grade, giving consideration to the acceptable price.

Recently a new diner opened in our neighborhood; Chicken n' Chops. The main branch is located in BF Parañaque and we're lucky enough they've expanded their business in Las Pinas. Since I was yearning to eat chicken one day, I found myself standing in front of the diner searching their menu for the supreme chicken on the list. Their menu comprises of specialty chicken, pork, fish, vegetables and preorder noodles. The staff recommended their best seller, the Hainanese Chicken (Php320.00/whole-no half order) but I preferred their Buttered Fried Chicken instead. (Php 150.00-half order) It's approximately 12pcs of crispy, breaded, buttered chicken sprinkled with bits of toasted garlic. It was well seasoned and they have homemade gravy that complimented the dish.

We ordered their party platter with four different flavors for chicken wings. Good for 4 people. The flavors we chose are garlic parmesan, caramelized patis (fish sauce), honey bbq and teriyaki. I liked the garlic parmesan chicken wings. The fried wings were marinated, moist, soft and crunchy (garlic parmesan). It's deliciously prepared for each customer. Lots of young millennials love to come and eat lunch here at King of Wings. This place is busy during lunch hour. Affordable price and serving is average. Clean and neutral gender bathroom.

A few months before BonChon and the other Korean chicken joints came to the Philippine shores,…read morethere was Chicken Charlie. The first time I tried it was in this branch in QC. There was a long line and a long wait just to get one box of the soy garlic chicken. With one bite, I understood why. The chicken is so crunchy, the whole deal seemed unreal. Close your eyes when biting and you wouldn't even know it's actually chicken. That is until you cut into the juicy, flavorful meat. The first experience was simply unforgettable. To this day, I get really bad cravings for their chicken every time I remember how good that first bite was. I love how creative they've become with the menu. There's the usual chicken portions -- they have value meals with one-piece, two-piece or chops, they have a chicken basket with 3, 6 or 12 pieces, they have it in a burger bun, they have it in a bowl with rice, they have it on top of greens, you can even get your chicken with noodles.

I'm pretty sure Chicken Charlie was here way before the whole Bon Chon craze. I remember being…read moretreated here by my aunt during the first week that I just got back from the U.S., and I told her that I wanted to try something new (of course by then, I've had a good dose of Jollibee). Their chicken wings are double-cooked, and served as either soy garlic or spicy. They serve various meal items for chicken wings at a cheap price (at least cheaper than the competition), and somehow I like their version just a bit better. I always go for the spicy option, and I wasn't disappointed at all. It's hot enough to want an extra serving of rice, but not anywhere near tongue-burning sensation. If given the choice to choose between the two, I think Chicken Charlie offers a better flavor and price range than its competition. Also, they have Dynamite Jalapeños - hands-down winner for me!
