I’m a wings aficionado. It’s my favorite food by far. I once flew from New York City to Buffalo and back in one day, just to go to the Anchor Bar and have wings for lunch. Then I married a girl from Buffalo! Even before I did, I spent plenty of time there, so if you’re from Buffalo, I submit the following to establish my street cred:

• My favorite wings are Big Tree Inn, Buffalo Brew Pub, and Amherst Pizza and Ale House. 
• I prefer Anchor Bar to Duff’s.
• Bleu cheese. Period. Don’t even mention ranch.
• Wings shouldn’t be breaded or baked. Those might be wings, and they might be chicken, but they’re not wings.

Las Vegas has lots of great food, but sometimes you’re just looking for good wings. They’re there, but you have to know where to find them. Here are my reviews and recommendations.

One of my favorite ways to explore a new city is on the Big Bus Tours.
