killer foodswings: brooklyn, new york

A friend of mine uses her Facebook page for sociological data-gathering, or so it seems, since she posts a poll question every morning. This morning, the question was: "Wings, how do you like them and where do you get 'em?"

Oh, I couldn't reply fast enough -- the buffalo drumsticks at Foodswings are to die for. The sauce is perfect, spicy enough to make your eyes water and tangy enough to make you drool a little just thinking about them. They taste just as bright as they look, which is exactly what you want in a hot wing.

Foodswings, for those who aren't in the know, is a vegan fast-food joint in Brooklyn. I've been known to travel hours by car and train just to eat there, and you should too. Unless you live in Brooklyn, in which case you probably live at Foodswings anyway. Also, they're open wicked late, especially to a girl who lives in the Berkshires.

And try the pistachio milkshake. Creamy and thick, it's the perfect cooldown after you gorge on the buffalo drumsticks.

BROOKLYN, NY
Best Bet:
* Foodswings: Completely vegan fast-food joint. 295 Grand St, Brooklyn, NY. Web: http://www.foodswings.net/.
