Let me back up first. I decided to meet up with the Queen after work because we had acquired some tickets to see a traveling band of minstrels known as "Boston" at Verizon theater in Grand Prairie. We agreed that in order to celebrate such an occasion, wings were in order. Luckily, there is a Wingstop near her place of business, so it was agreed upon. The only new flavor we tried this time was Garlic Parmesan. How could it go wrong? We like garlic! We like parmesan! Unfortunately, these wings were not as advertised.
We had imagined something along the lines of this: a nice wing, fried to a crisp, then tossed in a garlic sauce and dusted in a parmesan cheese mix to finish it off. What we got was basically a handful of plain naked wings with no sauce (and almost no seasoning) with a cup and a half of powdered parmesan cheese dumped on top. This was quite disappointing because I thought I had heard good things about this flavor. Maybe I was confusing it for the garlic wings at Buffalo Wild Wings or somewhere else. The Queen and I were both quite unimpressed with these wings. They had no detectable garlic flavor of any kind, and the parmesan topping seemed very much like the powdered can of parmesan cheese one might put on pizza. Its a very rare thing for the King to dislike a wing, but unfortunately these did not pass the test. Their only positive was that they were pretty crispy, which is enough for a few points in my rankings, but that's about it. They will not be in the regular rotation. Luckily, Wingstop has plenty of other flavors for me to stuff my face with.

crazy, this is my favorite flavor at wingstop and normally they have minced garlic, and lots of it. Maybe the location ran out or something? I'd hhhave asked them where is my garlic??
