| - Wings aren't really my thing. Too much work to eat, but if they come prepared boneless then I'm there. With that being said, I can't say that Wing King is the "King of Wings," but what I can tell you is that their other food items are pretty dang BOMB. Yeah, I just dropped the B-word.
I wouldn't have known about this place if it wasn't for the CMYE: Kaba Curry Tasting that my girlfriends and I attended. While waiting for our curry samples to arrive, we observed other Yelpers lining up at Wing King. One Yelper (bless your heart, whoever you are!) came by with samples of garlic parmesan fries and some type of chili fries; both were fresh and hot from the fryers. The samples were what tempted us to try the other items listed on their menu, such as the Jalapeño Bombers, Red Velvet Cake, Peach Cobbler, and Fried Pickles.
Peach Cobbler ($2.00 a bowl): My friend had been eyeing the cobbler for sometime, so she bought a cup for all of us to share. Peach Cobbler isn't a dessert I can say I love to indulge in, but this was indeed scrumtrulescent! The cobbler tastes homemade. It's as though there's a granny in the back kitchen whose sole duty is to make peach cobblers.The crust is the best part of the cobbler. It's sweet and it crumbles and melts in your mouth. *Homer Simpson drool*
Red Velvet Cake ($2.50 a slice): I want that cake, cake, cake, cake, cake, cake! It's not even my birthday, but I thought this was a fantastic start to my birthday week: sharing a slice of red velvet cake with my girls. Rumor has it that the secret ingredient to this cake is North Korean unicorn tears. I swear on a book of carpet samples that the cake was amazing and it will change your life. Ok, I'm exaggerating just a little, but it's one of the best Red Velvets I've ever eaten. When I heard that the Red Velvet was about to come right out of the oven, I headed over immediately to the counter and received the first piece. As I watched the cake being sliced, I could see the steam rising. Moist and sweet, I thought it was at its peak of deliciousness when the icing began to solidify. There's also bits of chocolate in the cake giving it a sweet crunchiness with each bite.
Fried Pickles ($1.49 for a small) and Jalapeño Bombers ($1.00 for two): We couldn't just have dessert. Sweet needed to be offset by something savory. My friends and I shared a small order of the Fried Pickles and two orders of the Jalapeño Bombers. The Jalapeño Bombers weren't spicy, but they were cheesy. The Fried Pickles were alright, but I thought they were too salty.
Service: The guys running Wing King are friendly and just seem cool. They even came around to pick up empty containers and plates for us after we were done eating.
Overall: So far Wing King's made a good first impression on me. I'll have to come by again to try some wings. Their "suicide" flavor wings sound like a challenge that I'm thinking about accepting.
Drop by Wing King if you're hungry and are in the area. It's located inside the Internet Cafe across the Charleston CSN campus.
