It was September 8th 2013, a Sunday, and I had just arrived back in Toronto on the GoTrain around 9pm.
I don't remember my waitress, but I do remember the staff uniform. The shortest possible kilt and the tiniest crop top. I thought I was just going to a regular pub, but this is really more like a Hooters. Apparently this is what they are known for, but I had no idea.
I was hungry, and decided to check out somewhere for wings while I was down near Union Station. The Tilted Kilt pub chain had arrived in Toronto the year before from America, and while I didn't know much about it, I knew they had wings.
It was a beautiful night so I sat on the patio. There's not much to look at on The Esplanade but they have tv's all over the patio to watch whatever sports you wanted to watch. It was pretty empty (it was late Sunday night) and I never even went inside to see what the interior was like.
not sure when this menu was from so prices might not be accurate. |

The menu has standard pub fare, but I was there for the wings. Traditional for me, but they also had grilled, and boneless.
It's not real potato chips, but thinly sliced potato that was deep fried. It's crispy, but also soft at the same time.
I got a pretty good spread of food. The wings not only came with veggies and blue cheese dip, but also tortilla chips! I must have been really hungry because I also ordered a side of potato chips.
They give a choice of blue cheese or ranch but of course I got blue cheese. The dip was definitely needed for the potato chips.
The wings don't come in a specified amount, but there were about 7 or 8 in the order.
The wings were small in length, but really meaty.
They are also breaded. No memory of how crispy they were.
I'm guessing I got their "Kilt Burner Sauce" - their hottest hot sauce. Not to sure. I really don't remember how these wings tasted. I also got a sauce on the side. My guess was that it was Guinness BBQ, but I have no idea.
So I have no SCORE, nor any direct memory of the wings, but I don't think it was anything special because I never went back. The Tilted Kilt closed down sometime by 2020
