Who serves the best chicken wings in Auburn?
There are as many answers as bars and restaurants in the area, but filmmaker Matthew Reynolds will find out for himself on Friday, Aug. 24, when he travels through town with the crew of his documentary, “The Great Chicken Wing Hunt.”
Reynolds is on a mission to find the best Buffalo wing in the world, and he is confident he will find it in the state where the wing was born. The finale of trip will take Reynolds and his crew to Buffalo's National Buffalo Wing Festival, held Sept. 1 and 2.
The Auburn leg of Reynolds' journey will take him through seven restaurants in less than seven hours. Daddabbo's Pizza and other local establishments will contend for the unofficial honor of serving the best wings in Auburn when Reynolds' crew of wing-eaters evaluates each restaurant.
The idea for the hunt and the film came to Reynolds in Slovakia while working as a journalist for the Reuters news agency. At the time, Reynolds was cooking up wings for central European eaters who had yet to sink their teeth into one. He discussed the idea with Slovak director Zuzana Piussi, who agreed to travel with Reynolds and direct the documentary about his wing-hunting caravan's trip through New York.
