The bones of KLUCKR
When munching on your favorite wing at your favorite wing joint do you ponder "How would I categorize this wing"? No you wouldn't. Except with an occasional expletive basted sentence like "This klucking wing is klucking hot!". Little did you know at the time but you just categorized a wing and then you promptly dug in again. We, at Kluckr, took roughly the same approach, with a little process drizzled on top.
We started with:
Heat
It seemed obvious enough. Give the experts the ability to tell each other just how hot the wings are. So an example would be a rating of 2 Chickens maybe a mild wing perhaps with a quick bite on the tail end. While 5 Chickens would leave you sweating over a plate of wings in anticipation mixed with exhaustion.
Variety
Frankly, variety can be a great thing. The more variety the more chance that the place:
- Cares about wings and;
- Will get at least one of the flavors right.
So long live variety...the spice of life.
Service
Wing joints are not renowned for their level of service but here is an opportunity to call it out. Fact is, you dont really notice when the service at a wing place is bad, but you really notice when the service is good. Share your comments here. Guide us, fellow Kluckrs.
Atmosphere
At Kluckr, if a place is nice, wings are good, we can watch the game and the people are cool... You've got us. If we detect any attitude, which we all have, then buh-bye. Life is too short.
Value
Not a guiding factor as it is an approachable price point usually, but sometimes you get that place that believes its wings have kissed by God and you pay a premium. This will allow places to check themselves and their pricing, and you can help. For places that provide good wings at a bargain, this Bud's for you.
So, as you can see, no one can deny the pure science behind the categorization of wings that we have applied here. We at Kluckr are sure CERN would like to get their greasy hands on our formulae but alas, it is ours alone. As that park ranger once said way back "Only you can prevent poor wing experiences, only you". Keep klucking you ol' Kluckrs.
