Crazy Wings, Haymarket, Sydney
Crazy Wings is a snacking restaurant that serves mainly meat on a stick, actually on two sticks when it's chicken. It was perfect for a noodlies Sydney food blog quick fix. As the name says, they specialise in chicken wings, original, honey sweet, chilli pepper or the hottest, the BT Monster. But there's also a good selection of offal, seafood and vegetables too.
It's Sunday lunch time and we're at the end of a six day heatwave, so I settle for the original. The wings were lightly marinated with most of the flavours coming from the spiced powder that coats them - very, very moreish.
The crazy lamb also lightly marinated, tender the powder a stronger, spicier flavour.
Amazing how they attach these garlic chives (crazy leeks) to the skewers. Perfectly grilled, nicely cooked but retaining juiciness... surprisingly tasty.
Tofu with century eggs exceeded my expectations, the tofu was silken smooth, ideal contrast and compliment the salted eggs and soy sauce. I couldn't stop eating.

ReplyDeleteif i was in sydney i would be there STAT!
Yep, this place rocks! I think stil relatively undiscovered though (for now).
ReplyDeletethe tofu is to die for
ReplyDeleteYou're brave for trying this in the searing heat! And I'm glad to see they offer something completely devoid of spice and heat as the tofu.
ReplyDeleteI have GOT to get there one of these days. The lamb looks sensational!
ReplyDeleteMademoiselle, the tofu is really first class, I'm a big fan of tofu (being a veg for 4 years in the past), but this one, is very, very good
ReplyDeleteThe Chives John, you should try the chives, works v well with meat... and it looks so intriguing how they attach it to the skewers
ReplyDeleteWow, everything looks delicious here, would go down very nice with some beer me thinks!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great place for a quick & tasty snack, although I wouldn't dare to order the BT Monster.
ReplyDeleteReally Its recipe very colorful and lovely . its recipe very crazy and tested . interesting this post and i like Sydney recipe .
ReplyDeletethat Tofu with century eggs is an acquired taste for me. Din Tai Fung seem to add pork floss in their version.
ReplyDeleteOh Simon, I'm sure you'll love the tofu! Tried to go to Din Tai Fung the other day... too long a line so had to skip it.. so still haven't been!
ReplyDeleteHey Lateraleating, yep, I hear the BT is a killer! Though I am tempted to try it just to see how much of a killer it is!
ReplyDeletehaha i love their mushrooms ..
ReplyDeletethe tofu looks very interesting, the smell isnt to pungent for you? . hmmmm mite bring the boy back.
smell was fine for me Dolly, didn't have the mushroom but have since seen a pic and it does look very good... will probably end up coming back for a few more crazy dishes... including BT (maybe)
