Nezesaussi Grill Dubai Marina
Love some spicy chicken? Antipodian bar Nezesaussi Grill in Dubai Marina is daring diners to tackle a 1.5kg bucket in under 15 minutes every Monday, for Dhs195. The price also includes a litre and a half of hops to wash them down with. If you succeed, it’s all on the house – but failure means paying Dhs149. Sounds easy, right? Just wait until the looming pile of unbearably hot wings is staring you in the face.

CLAW BBQ
Think you can handle spice? Think again. This was the hardest, and most painful, food challenge the Time Out Dubai team has undertaken. The Suicide Inferno Wings challenge requires participants to finish 12 eye-wateringly spicy chicken wings in a mere 20 minutes. Those that manage to complete the spice-fest will get their wings for free, and be reaching for a glass of water.

Original Wings & Rings
DIFC’s prime spot for lunch breaks and post-work wings, Original Wings & Rings serves up wings every night of the week. To get more wing for your buck, however, head here on a Tuesday for the “wing frenzy” and you’ll get wings for just Dhs3.99 a pop. And if you’re a chicken-loving lady, visit on a Wednesday where you’ll get four free drinks plus 30 percent off your wings.
From Dhs3.99. Tue noon-8pm (wings frenzy), Wed 8pm-midnight (ladies’ night). Liberty House, DIFC (04 359 6900).
Wingsters
The Initiation is not for the faint-hearted. The challenge sees culinary daredevils take on eight horrifyingly spicy wings in four minutes before enduring a five minute after-burn. There are a number of rules that must be strictly adhered to before the owner or manager declares a verdict. Contestants must eat the meat directly off the bone and fully finish each wing before they start the next and finish all wings before the after-burn period starts. But that’s not all. There will be no consuming of liquid during the eating of the wings, nor for the five minutes after, nor will you be allowed to wipe your face or mouth until the challenge is over. Successful contestants will have their wing-smeared mug pictured in the mobster hall of fame and will get their wings for free.
Dhs75. Open daily 11am-2am. Marina Diamond 1, Dubai Marina (04 427 9900).
Perry & Blackwelder’s

You can also get a pitcher of hops for Dhs99 to wash it all down with, too.
