We are buffalo wings addict and are always in search for the next best buffalo wings place! We've heard a lot about this place called Chicken Charlie but never got around to trying it when lo and behold, we were situated in the Greenhills area and grabbed the chance! The visual design of the place was somewhat like Bon Chon, with red being their prominent colors but the taste is anything but!
We ordered the soy garlic combo of 3 drumsticks and 4 wings. The first thing that we noticed was how hard texture of the skin was which was also crispy. It resembled a tempura batter once it was solidified. The unique texture of Chicken Charlie's wings makes the skin non-greasy. It seemed as if there was no oil, as compared to the usual buffalo wings that are drenched with it. The chicken meat itself was next to boring, since it offered no striking feature whatsoever. It tasted like an ordinary meat that you can cook at home.
The greatest disappointment was when we bit into one drumstick and discovered that there was still blood left from the chicken! Imagine our horror. We suggest that they check the quality of their chicken first before serving it to customers because mistakes like that can really discredit their restaurant. This experience has left us with the conclusion that we will never dine there ever again! There are many other chicken wings restaurants in the metro that offer better quality just like Sunrise Buckets, which we greatly recommend! This one falls as a mere drop in the chicken wings bucket, unremarkable and disappointing. The rumors are false! Chicken Charlie really isn't that amazing.
Now, off to another chicken wings adventure...
