Gothamist spotted this sign the other day while walking down Thompson Street between West 3rd and Bleecker. Now you may remember that, a while back, Pluck U. served up its buffalo wings around the corner on West 3rd, in addition to its other two locations: 3rd Avenue between 10th & 11th and 124 Nassau Street between Beekman & Ann. Granted, we haven't eaten at Pluck U. since those days, but it's likely that we may stop by for a wing fix once it opens up. We will admit that we rarely eat wings anymore, having OD'd on them in college, and tend to prefer slightly funkier versions than the buffalo-style standby, like those highlighted in NY Magazine's Super Bowl wrapup or the ones they described at Tebaya.
Where do you get your wings, be they buffalo, teriyaki, fried, or smoked?





I dug Pluck U. when I worked in Midtown (hotel on 56th and 7th), as they have a branch in the 50s on 9th I believe... thought they were quality wings. Get the "Gold" sauce if you order them.
Now, it's more the wings from my own neighbourhood - 200 Fifth in Park Slope. Their signature wings are more like drumsticks, breaded not battered (with real breadcrumbs), and served golden brown with a Chinese hot/sour dipping sauce. Unbelievable. Their regular wings are excellent too.
tebaya was kinda boring.. been twice.. i prefer pluck you (although their mozz sticks with a side of cold sauce are the reason to go there) or even atomic wings over tebaya.. they just seemed kind of plain..
