Wing Masters

I'm getting really excited because this is one of my favorite places to eat here: Wing Masters!

On Truman Avenue, across form the Island Bicycles shop is a wonderful place that serves wings, pizza, burgers, nachos, quesadillas and more. But most importantly--WINGS!!
Are you getting your wings from Pizza Hut or Dominos or wherever? STOP it. Now. And go here instead.

Garlic Parmesan

Half Jamaican Jerk, half Lemon Pepper

Why are the wings so good? They drop them straight into nice, hot grease that crispifies the skin and gives it amazing crunch. It also locks in the juices of the wings. Not only is the meat good itself, the variety of sauces the wings can come in is rreeeaaalllyyy good.

Garlic Parmesan, Lemon Pepper, Sweet Fire Chipotle, Wasabi and Sriracha are some that I truly enjoy. But I've tried more and they're honestly all good.

Let's see, what else was on the list? Quesadillas..

Southwestern Chicken Quesadilla

I've tried the Chipotle Cheese Steak quesadilla as well as this one above. Packed with black beans, corn and chicken breast between two flour tortillas--its good. And really filling.

Pizza

Large pizza with pepperoni and sausage

Large Pizza, half cheese-half pepperoni

With the pizza I have a love-hate relationship. I love it because my kids like it and it's a part of the $19.95 meal deal (large pizza, 10 wings and a 2 liter). BUT the only part I actually like is the crust. It has good chew and pull--sorta New York style.  The part that I hate (dislike--hate is such a strong word) are the toppings. There's a pretty good selection of toppings, but they're.....low quality? I don't know what it is but the toppings are lacking in taste and don't make the pizza pop like it should. But the crust is good...that's why I still get it (and my kids like it).

Their cheese steaks are pretty good. The beef Nachos Grande Supreme could have been better, but was worth the money--twas an entire small pizza box of tortilla chips, beef, lettuce, cheese, onions and more.

Another plus is you can dine-in or have it delivered.

There's outdoor and indoor seating, which, I think, really captures the classic Key West laid back atmosphere. You can usually just stroll up and there'll be one person working the front.  There's an inside "bar" where you can order and eat too. Parking is an issue in this area, so it may be better to walk, or at least be prepared to walk after parking.

The best part??....aside from tasty wings?

There are Meal Deals!! Three of them. It's a combination of either wings, pizza, cheese steaks, and a 2 liter of your choice. Their menu is online (I'm trying not to post restaurant's own websites), just Google (or Bing) it!

The Bottom Line:

Food: Wings? reeeaaalllyyy GOOD! Quesadillas are good too. The pizzas, cheese steaks and nachos, etc. are okay...but hey, it's WING Masters

Price: The prices really aren't that bad. They have meal deals which I really like and save you some money on the things that you're more likely to get.

Service: The service is good. They are very prompt and polite. There is usually only one person working in the front, so they may be busy getting other orders and such ready. Don't forget they deliver!

Overall: A good place to get food on a Friday night....or any other night for that matter.hehe. Me and my co-workers would order for lunch quite a few times. If you're craving some wings this is THE place to go. There are also other things to eat that may appease that strange person who for some reason doesn't want wings.hehehe

Better Than Sex

I figured I'd return with a BANG and share the deliciousness that is Better Than Sex. What's better than sex? Some could argue very few things, but this dessert haven is making that claim and doing a preTTy good job at supporting it.

The Hubs and I went to this dessert restaurant for our anniversary. And I must say, there is a rather...sensual theme throughout the restaurant.

 Dark, deep reds, pinks and browns scream romance.  So many textures, and suggestive pictures in the decor create a rustic feel which makes it more comfortable...more sexy getaway-like, instead of hot and sweaty walk around Key West feel.  It's dark and intimate--fittingly so.

Okay, lets start out with drinks:
Since everything on the menu is so....sexual, there is a creation called the "Rim Job." It involves a wine of your choice served in a glass dipped in a chocolate that complements the wine.  If you're not into wine, they have rim jobs for your beer too (The Hubs got a chocolate beer in a rim jobbed beer mug called "The Gyration")!
If this wasn't what you were expecting, you may get a slight something out of it as you watch the person across from you lick the outside of their wine glass like a lollipop to get the last bit of chocolate off..

Carly's Button....partially consumed

I completely enjoyed my rim job. I was amazed at how the sparkling wine and chocolate paired together so well--what's even better is that the madame head chef creates the mixture of chocolate herself so that it is purely unique to this wine (and every other wine) and this restaurant!

Now, dessert!

The dirty talk doesn't stop with drinks. With some desserts titled "Team Cream," "Cookie Nookie Pie" and "Peanut Butter Perversion," I think you can start to see that a naughty vibe is produced and expected inside this venue. The wonderful part is that you can't help but join in.

We told them it was our anniversary and they planned accordingly (with no extra charge), to deliver to us our order on pleasantly decorated plates and a candle for the occasion!

The "Missionary Crisp" - a delicious skin-on apple crisp

I had the Missionary Crisp with "Vanilla Bean Balls" "on top." It was wonderfully buttery and rich for an apple crisp.  The only thing that I did not enjoy was that the skins were left on the apples. It does indeed say skins are left on in the description, but I thought it would not have been as noticeable--alas, it was.

The Hubs got the Banana Bazooka

The Bottom Line:

Food: The food is lovely and decadent. There's a broad array of desserts too. Sorbet, chocolates, crisps, dessert wines and beers. It's a real sultry treat.

Price: Prices are pretty middle of the road. It is a restaurant solely dedicated to desserts, so spending $9-$12 per dessert is rightly worth it.

Service: The service is pretty good. Servers base their service off of your needs. If it's your anniversary, they're congratulatory and leave you space to kanoodle. If you're there under a more jovial nature, they giggle with you at the names of the items too.

Overall: A really good dessert spot. I really like the decor, and playfulness of the menu that plays into the "Better Than Sex" mantra. The desserts are definitely delicious, the rim jobs are surprisingly good and its a good place for either an anniversary, bad day at work, or good day just for fun! So, IS it better than sex? Let's just say, if all you've been rocking is the plain old missionary, maybe the missionary crisp with Vanilla Bean Balls on top will set you right.

Need Not Worry

Need not worry, ladies and gents. I know you thought I forgot about you, but rest assured that I've been thinking of you all along.  The pictures and experiences are here with me, they just need to be posted to share with you. In due time--actually very soon.
