Occasional Digest - a story for you

Nearly a decade in and now with two locations (the second is at 933 S. Brand Blvd. in Glendale), the Greyhound Bar & Grill continues to draw crowds for major sporting events showcased across its TVs and pull-down projector screens — though for many, the food is its own incentive. Heralded for its chicken wings, which are available in more than a dozen sauces, the sports staple coats lightly battered, gloriously crispy wings in options such as classic buffalo, garlic, gochujang, lemon pepper, al pastor, and even a cotija-topped esquites variety, and offers classic bone-in wings and boneless, plus battered cauliflower for a vegetable take. Depending on the location, the kitchen also whips up potato tacos, chicken parm subs, vegan tortas, seafood tostadas, patty melts and personal pizzas made with 48-hour-fermented dough. Keep an eye on the chalkboard for daily specials such as steak frites or curried mushroom stromboli. While not technically an Eagles bar any longer, it still serves a Philly cheesesteak and broadcasts the team’s games, and, of course, there’ll be a solid showing from fans during the Super Bowl. If you’re hoping to bring the Greyhound home for your own viewing, two sizes of party packs should get your game day going: The Wide Receiver feeds four to six, while the Linebacker feeds seven to 10, and both involve three tiers. The classic tier offers dozens of wings or a veggie version; the pizza combo includes multiple pizzas and wings; and the “all-out blitz” contains bone-in wings, boneless wings, pizzas and veggie wings — with add-on options for Philly-style cheesesteaks, fries, and vegan burgers too. Takeout orders must be placed by 5 p.m. Feb. 10 via email ([email protected]).
