Hanging
out
with
some
friends
in
Ypsilanti
and
while
scrolling
through
Facebook
I
saw
that
someone
had
mentioned
this
place
had
"24k
Gold
Chicken
Wings".
Say
what?
Like,
real
gold?
Apparently!
So
here
we
are
to
try
these
things
out!
Atmosphere/Appearance:
Set
right
on
the
corner
of
Michigan
Ave
and
S.
Washington
is
this
gem.
The
exterior
is
modern,
simple
and
blends
in
very
well
with
the
gorgeous
red
bricks
of
downtown
Ypsilanti.
Inside
is
very
modern,
open
and
chic.
There
are
big
windows
that
are
excellent
for
people
watching.
There's
exposed
brick,
exposed
ventilation
and
tons
of
color
painted
onto
the
walls.
The
décor
is
lively,
fun
and
inclusive.
You
can
also
see
right
into
the
open
kitchen!
This
place
is
holding
no
secrets.
Lol.
Downstairs
is
actually
a
separate
business,
but
there
was
live
music,
trivia
or
something
always
going
on
down
there.
There
are
also
probably
75
classic
arcade
machines,
pool
tables
and
a
huge
bar.
They
have
their
own
food,
but
only
REALLY
SIMPLE
stuff,
like
hot
dogs.
Service:
I
can't
remember
who
took
care
of
us,
but
our
service
was
just
fine.
Food:
So
I'm
here
for
the
wings
man!
I
get
my
order
and
I'm
just
blown
away
with
the
presentation.
The
wings
were
shimmering
and
now...
don't
get
me
wrong,
somebody
could've
purchased
some
edible
glitter
and
thrown
it
on
these
things
then
called
them
24k
Gold.
'Cause,
why
would
you
want
to
eat
gold?
Just
to
say
you
did?
There's
much
better
use
for
it.
Lol.
Anyway,
the
wings
were
delicious
and
the
gold
doesn't
add
any
flavor
at
all.
However
the
wings
were
big,
juicy,
cooked
excellently
and
decently
seasoned.
Very
good
and
would
absolutely
get
them
again.
The
jalapeno
ranch
was
a
great,
creamy
complement
as
well.
I
did
get
a
chance
to
try
their
curly
fries
and
they
were
crispy,
decently
salted,
but
nothing
super
special.
However,
the
Truffle
Tots
were
DELIGHTFUL.
I'm
a
huge
truffle
fan
and
these
had
an
excellent
mild
truffle
taste
with
great
saltiness
from
the
Parmesan
cheese.
Value:
These
legendary
gimmicky
wings
were
$15.00
for
8.
Totally
worth
it.
But
this
isn't
a
cheap
place,
but
it's
not
5-star
dining
prices
either.
In
conclusion,
I
really
enjoyed
this
place
and
I
hope
it
sticks
around.
It's
fresh,
it's
unique,
it's
inclusive,
IT
IS
YPSILANTI
in
a
restaurant.
I'm
excited
to
come
back
here
and
try
out
some
more
stuff!
