The chicken wings are the most important thing here.  That 
little piece of wing, believe that that’s the most important 
thing we got here.

The Anchor Bar has been in business since 1935.  We did 
have another location on the water and that's where the 
name came from, Anchor Bar.

In 1964, Teressa Bellissimo was the owner and the mom of 
the bartender that night, Dominic.  Dominic was bartending 
and his friends came in the bar at about two in the morning 
and they were hungry and took those wings that are sitting 
on the side of her soup pot.  And she fried them in some nice 
fresh oil, deep fried them, and then she created her own 
sauce.

Well, the chicken wings are cooking right now in about 350,  
350 degrees (170c) right now.  So, it usually takes 15 to18 
minutes for chicken wings.  So, these aren’t quite ready yet, 
but they’ll be ready soon to pull up before we can toss them 
in the sauce and put them out for use.

We wanted to see, to come to the original wing place.  So, 
we looked it up and found this place, and so we decided to 
try it out today.  We love wings, and so we want to try their 
wings for the first time.  Very good, it was very good, best 
wings we’ve had.

Chicken wings are in high demand, especially during, like, 
football season and hockey season.

So, yes, in very high demand for the Super Bowl and, you 
know, the fall and sports time of year it's hard to get chicken 
wings, believe it or not.

We serve over 2000 pounds (907kg) a week of wings, which 
is a lot of wings, right?

We have 15 locations all across the U.S. and Canada, five 
locations being in Canada, and we're growing, we're 
expanding.
