A NEW chicken wings restaurant is opening its doors in Ty Pawb this month.
The Wing King is opening in the building's food court on August 24 and promises to offer the "perfect" chicken wing.
Business owner, Andrew Boycott, has been a chef for 23 years at various establishments in Chester - most recently at The Gathering restaurant.

He said: "I spent the first Covid lockdown perfecting the perfect chicken wing where it stays crispy after the sauce is added.
"We introduced this in my place of work at the time and they became a huge demand product and the highest seller."
Andrew said it was the success of his chicken wings that inspired him to embark on his very first business venture.
He added: "The fried chicken business is so much more than late night or fast food, this isn't fast it's great food. People can expect a perfect balance in flavours in our wings and burgers, it's a huge scene in some cities and a big ambition of mine to deliver a similar product to Wrexham."
He said Ty Pawb is the perfect place for a new business to begin its journey.

"It's got minimal overheads compared to a shop so a great springboard for independents," he said.
"A lot of vendors in Ty Pawb are new businesses started on the back of Covid lockdowns."
As well as chicken wings, it will be offering fried chicken burgers, topped fries and what Andrew describes as "something a little special" - Chinese salt and pepper hash browns.
The Wing King will be open Tuesday to Saturdays, 10.30am to 5pm - but will be open later when there are evening events on at Ty Pawb.
