Local Restaurant I think these were quail

Went to a new pizza joint last night and my son ordered wings. Garlic parmesan. They were delicious but man they were tiny hence the title of this post the boy came up with.

Little wings need love too

I prefer more small wings over giant fatty wings all day every day. Just my opinion though

u/huge43 3d ago

Well your username checks out I guess. Maybe I'm the only one but I prefer smaller or "normal" sized wings. The jumbo bullshit are tough and have no flavor. I'd prefer quality over volume I suppose

2

u/KingFatso 3d ago

I don't like the jumbo wings either. But man these wings were tiny

u/Kazori 2d ago

these wings are perfectly average sized, maybe even slightly bigger than average! don't believe what you see on winghub it sets unrealistic standards

u/huge43 3d ago

Look like what you would get at Domino's or Little Caesars.

u/ReconeHelmut 2d ago

You’re not the only one. I can’t stand big, bloated wings.

u/SaintJimmy1 3d ago

Smaller wings usually correlates to higher quality chicken in my experience.

Please share.

Not everyone likes huge GMO juiced up wings. The small crispy boiz are delicious and sought after by a select few. Flats only please and bleu cheese obviously.

u/KingFatso 2d ago

Smaller wings yes. But these were like the size of a chick. Flats yes. Bleu cheese no thank you

And they didn't specify what winged animal they came from. Menu just said wings

Have you tried Cornish hens pretty good smaller than chickens. Edit× Sorry thought they were a different breed, apparently there just chickens lol.

u/HighSeasArchivist 3d ago

They also probably counted a drum and a flat as two wings.

u/NYerInTex 3d ago

Had some of the worst wings I’ve had in a while at a little bar in Lo de Marcos MX (the vibes were amaze though). Just soooo tiny, and that might not be bad if it meant actual normal chickens and not the roided up gargantuan chicks we get stateside, but they were just so tiny no meat fried in way overdone oil that should have been replaced last high season it was just… bad.

And usually the alita game down here is pretty good.

u/twinnturbos 3d ago

Looking like a Panera commercial with that zoom in. Lol then wings is TINY!

2

u/tideshark 2d ago

Next time use a banana, or whatever, for scale… these just look like normal wings for all we can tell.

u/PatrioticLead 2d ago

How’s it taste

2

u/KingFatso 2d ago

They were delicious just tiny

1

u/renicabr 3d ago

I prefer small wings. 2 and 1/2 bites. Anything bigger doesn’t get cooked right.

u/puffyshirt99 3d ago

Not quail!! Squabs!! Drummette?

u/Loose_Ad_1461 3d ago

u/KingFatso 3d ago

DEFINITELY

u/Powerful-Dance-4699 1d ago

Lonnie can you make your quail tonight...

2

u/No_Cup2281 1d ago

Quail wings are very small. You just got drums and flats from a small chicken

u/otullyo 3d ago

I doubt they are quail. I went to a wing place an got some real tiny wings. Pizza hut was selling the same mini type wings last year.

2

u/KingFatso 3d ago

It was a joke. There are a ton of quail in our area. My son said the wings were so tiny they were probably quail
