For this shave, I brought out RazoRock Son of Zeus Italian Shaving Soap.
Even before building the lather, the presentation sets the stage. The black tub, dark label and fiery Son of Zeus artwork give the soap a bold appearance that feels right at home with its mythological name.
But packaging only gets a shaving soap so far. Eventually, the brush has to hit the soap.
We have a new Wing Stop in Huntington on Jericho Turnpike. A few weeks ago, I visited it for the first time since I’ve been following its construction. I wanted to see what all the fuss was about.
As the sign clearly states, this establishment specializes in selling wings. If you’re a garlic lover, you’re in for a culinary delight because garlic is a key ingredient in almost every dish they serve, even when you wouldn’t anticipate it. For instance, you’ll find garlic in their French fries and even in their plain wings. While I’m not sure if this is a unique feature of this particular location, it was my personal experience. I must admit, I’m not a fan of having garlic where I didn’t ask for it.
They serve boneless or traditional wings with the bone. I prefer the latter. When it comes to flavors, they offer 16 options. Nine of them are hot, one is mild, three have no heat, and one is plain. Which I found out is a lie. Everything, like I said, that is plain has a garlic taste. What with all the spicy flavors? When did this trend of catering only to those who prefer spicy food start? Most likely originate from cooking shows? Come on, provide people who must avoid spicy food with a wider variety of options.
After my initial experience, I returned the following week and opted for the boneless option this time. I was particularly interested in trying the Hawaiian flavor and even requested a taste, which seemed to unsettle the staff. They informed me that they were not permitted to provide a sample, leaving me uncertain about whether I would enjoy it. Once they realized my concerns, they kindly offered me a small cup of it, but unfortunately, I found it unappealing. Consequently, I decided to order the blue cheese instead.
When I returned home and opened the bag, the aroma of garlic filled the air. As I pulled out the fries and then the wings, I noticed that the wings were generously coated in Hawaiian sauce, which I had explicitly requested to be left off. So much for having it my way. Determined to enjoy the wings, I managed to consume a few, dipping them into blue cheese, approximately five out of the ten I had ordered. However, the overpowering combination of garlic and Hawaiian sauce was simply too much for me to handle at once. Consequently, I decided to discard the remaining wings and call it a night.
Perhaps your experience will be better than mine. The place seemed busy, so I suppose you could say we have many garlic lovers in Huntington, New York.
