I like my food spicy, so the hottest variety, the Atomic wings, seemed like a natural pick. There was a warning on the menu about how hot these were, but I wasn&#8217;t scared.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The wings were slightly crispier than the average hot wing, which is just fine with me because it&#8217;s a sign that they&#8217;re well cooked all the way through. Like the Mojo wings I tried a couple of weeks ago, they were lightly sauced. That&#8217;s good too because you won&#8217;t go through an entire roll of paper towels eating them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">How hot were they? Well, they definitely stung, and three minutes after eating a wing it still stung. On the usual hot wing scale of mild-medium-hot-extra hot-suicide, I&#8217;d rank these as extra hot. They&#8217;re fiery, but not quite as much as the Holy Smokes wings down the street at Kooky Canuck.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The wings came with generous amounts of carrots and celery, and blue cheese for dipping.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Would I get these again? Yes, in the future when I&#8217;m at the Saucer and get hungry, the Atomic wings will be one of my go-to items on the menu. On the other hand, I don&#8217;t know if I&#8217;d make a special trip there just for these wings. The reigning champion of wings Downtown, for those who like the super-hot variety, in my opinion is still the Honey Habanero Wings at Max&#8217;s Sports Bar. Rich in flavor, and yet they set your mouth on fire at the same time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">One variety left to try: The Saucer&#8217;s new Asian wings. I&#8217;ll try to get to those in the next week or two.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday for lunch I decided to try another of the Flying Saucer&#8217;s new wing sauces.
