Danny Malin's 'reaction says it all' as he tries 'pigeon wings' at Bradford takeaway

Yorkshire YouTube star Danny Malin says his "face says it all" as he gave rave reviews to a Bradford takeaway

The Rate My Takeaway founder and presenter, from Barnsley, had heard good things about Wing Heist, in Great Horton Road, to went to see if it is worth the hype. The 42-year-old reviewer, who lives in Leeds, ordered six fried Naga wings, six Heist Original fried wings, six grilled BBQ wings, a side of fries, blue cheese dip, and ranch dip from the menu.

The total of the meal came to a price of £13.80. The internet star, who travels around Yorkshire reviewing different eateries, set up his iconic table and chair outside before his order came and fans couldn't resist getting a picture.

Danny said the green and black food packaging is "absolutely bang on". When Danny opened the box, he said: "What are them? Have they come off pigeons? They look like little pigeon wings?"

He first tucked into the fries and said they were "seasoned well". Next he tried the grilled BBQ wings and said they were "small". "The flavour is not too bad but they are like two bits, and then you're done," he added. He continued: "They are nice and fresh and red hot. They are succulent and soft, but there just isn't a lot on there."

Danny said he "expected more pazazz" from the fried wings. "It looks like a little pigeon leg". Tucking into the Naga wings the reviewer said: "It has got a little bit of after burn. When I have Naga there is usual more spice."

Fans noticed the YouTube star was quieter than usual. He gave the meal an overall six out of ten. "I expected a little bit more," Danny said.

Fans said Danny was "being generous" with his review. Sharing their thoughts in the comments on YouTube, one individual said: "6/10? That's bordering on dog food quality scran!"

Graham Daniel said: "The silence and the eye movement says it all. Six - and that's generous from Danny." Matthew Taylor added: "I loved this episode. Danny's reaction to the poor food was funny. It would be generous to give it a four."

"The silence and the rapid eye movement when Danny bit into the spicy wings made me laugh so much," Chris E pegged. @jonquality said: "Love your silence Danny when the food doesn't hit the spot."

"Danny's hesitation says it all," another added. "Very generous Danny," one individual said.
