The Depot's Famous Garbage Wings
The Story Behind Our Unique Chicken Wing Sauce
Several years ago, on a quiet afternoon in The Depot Restaurant kitchen, an experiment in the combination of various ingredients and sauces yielded a decidedly different, hot, tangy and altogether taste-bud tantalizing creation.
In an equally creative burst of inspiration, it became known – then and forever – as The Depot’s Garbage Wings® sauce.
As popular with long-time patrons as it is with Oneonta’s local college population, Garbage Wings® soon became the signature dish and the centerpiece to an evening’s fun.
The Depot was already known for its unique preparation of its wings, but since the sauce was introduced, fans have journeyed miles (in some cases, hundreds of miles) to experience the taste.
