NYC Wings: A 2nd Try of Lansdowne Road Proves Scruffy Duffy’s Wings Are Really Gone

January 16, 2009

A 2nd attempt at rediscovering the magic of Scruffy Duffy’s Buffalo Wings at widowed sister bar Lansdowne Road has failed. On my initial visit, I ordered the wings hot and was disappointed by the crusty sauce and dried out wings. On my second visit, I ordered the wings medium but the result is what you see below: under-sauced, dried out wings. They weren’t as dry as the hot wings, but the sauce was vinegary and generic. It’s with great sadness that we say goodbye to the fiery, red pepper flake-studded hot sauce that made the original Scruffy Duffy’s so good.
