WIRTW #622: the “wings” edition


Ask anyone from Philadelphia (including me) about the city's best cheesesteak, and the names you will not hear mentioned are Pat's (its inventor) or Geno's. Yes, they famously hold court at the intersection of 9th and Passyunk in South Philly. They might be Philly's most famous cheesesteaks, but they are not the best (a title which, in my humble opinion, belongs to Tony Luke's … but that's a story for another day).

Does the same hold true for buffalo wings? The eponymous chicken wing was invented at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo, New York. During her choir trip last weekend, Norah had the opportunity to visit the Anchor Bar. No, she didn't order wings for lunch, but she did sample one. What did she think?


You can hear all about the rest of Norah's choir trip on the most recent episode of The Norah and Dad Show, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
