The East Haven Chamber recently held its Wing Fling at the Village at Mariners Point. Nearly 200 guests came to the event to try out the 11 restaurants’ wings that competed in the challenge. The event benefited Clean Up East Haven. The Chamber raised $900 for the organization. The winner of the People’s Choice Award was the Rib House. The blind taste competition was judged by Mayor Joseph Maturo, Jr., WELI’s Vinnie Penn, and wing expert Vinnie Borzillo. The winners of the judging were The Rib House (first place), Fireside (second place), and Shoreline Prime (third place).
