Deep-fried chicken wings aren’t usually considered a fancy gourmet
meal, but one restaurant has come up with away to raise the raise the
fast-food staple to luxury status. Introducing the world’s first
gold-plated chicken wings.
Created by New York City restaurant ‘The Ainsworth’ in collaboration with socialite and reality TV star Jonathan Cheban, the FOODGŌD 24k Gold Buffalo Wings
are the definition of flashy fare. After being soaked in a coconut
butter, chipotle, and honey batter for 24 hours, they are deep fried and
then tossed into a metallic gold sauce that gives them a shiny,
gold-plated look. Finally, they are sprinkled with edible gold dust for
extra pizazz.
According to The Ainsworth, these blinged-out chicken wings are
available in three price tiers: 10 wings for $30, 20 wings for $60, or –
and this is if you really want to show off – 50 wings and a bottle
of Champagne Armand de Brignac for $1,000. Hey, you only live once,
right?
The gold-plated chicken wings got a lot of attention last month,
after their co-creator, Jonathan Cheban, aka ‘Foodgod”, showed them off
on his Instagram.
“My camera’s even trembling, these are so lit,” Cheban says in a short clip. “These are unbelievable.”
They certainly are. I for one can’t believe people would want to pay to eat something that looks metallic, but that’s just me.
