| Kusina de Maria is also known as KDM Food Express |
Joining the roster of restaurants that specializes in chicken wings is Kusina de Maria, a casual dining place that serves comforting flavors of food. A family-run hole-in-the-wall food joint, Kusina de Maria is bright, fun and comfy place. It's the kind of place that everyone enjoys, be they having breakfast, lunch with friends or colleagues, a family enjoying a weekend out or a couple on a casual date.
Named after the owner's wife, Marian--Kusina de Maria has opened their doors to the public last February 2019. But it has received the word of mouth among hardcore buffalo fans because they seem to have perfected the chicken wing concept at an unbelievably affordable price.
The owner isn't exactly stranger to business. He used to have a pet shop business but he had to transfer them somewhere near Murphy, Cubao. He thought of opening a food business because he and his wife Marian both enjoy eating. Marian admits she would watch cooking demonstrations on YouTube and she loves to prepare dishes for her family and friends. Thus they thought of a concept where they offer different flavored chicken and favorite snacks in just one dining place.
The kabasig is also good and worth to mention. Imagine bits of good ól bagnet minced to perfection on spiced mayo with green chilies and calamansi (Philippine Lemon). A great pulutan idea. You'd have to be ready to either crave for a few bottle of beers or order extra rice once you get a taste of this bagnet sisig treasure.
Come and visit Kusina de Maria at 116 New York Avenue cor. Stanford Street, Cubao Quezon City. Operating hours is from 11AM until 1AM daily.
There are numerous food joints that offer flavored buffalo wings judging by the constant influx of hungry customers looking for their fill of juicy flavored chicken wings. But only one seems to attract a long line in the heart of Cubao. Kusina de Maria has yet to be discovered by foodies. I guess I was one of the lucky ones who were able to try the delicious food that they offer. Kusina de Maria specializes in chicken wings but they also offer other interesting foods as well.

Kusina de Maria is like a breath of fresh air, giving diners especially foodie enthusiasts something to be happy about. Expect to spend a few minutes trying to figure out exactly what you want from their menu, as the choices are many, and each one is equally enticing.
You know that your dining experience is off to a wonderful start when you're personally welcomed into the restaurant and attended by its own owners. And just when you thought the conversation couldn't get any better, then came the food.
Must-try dishes include Kusina de Maria's Hidden Wings: the juicy yet flavorful and perfectly seasoned Korean-style fried chicken in various flavors. After my first few bites, I started tenderly into my plate all cleaned up. I didn't know what happened but it felt like I'm some machine gun and Kusina de Maria's buffalo hidden wings became my ammo.
Their wings are really huge. You won't feel lugi. In fact, it's sobrang sulit for their price. They offer juicy wings with a variety of flavors at the most affordable price. So it's really value for money. I guess that's the big difference.

Since they had opened their restaurant, the wings had been doing really well. So they felt that the chicken wings concept wasn't just a fad, it's been around here for decades and it's going to stay.
Kusina de Maria's owners says what sets their wings apart from other chicken wings restaurant is that the sauces were developed through a process of trial-and-error, with the help of Marian herself.
If you're a fan of strong sweet and tangy flavors on your protein, you'd surely enjoy Kusina de Maria's Buffalo Wings.

If you're up for some spice, their super spicy chicken wings would be your best bet. Be prepared though for that zing, so you better have a glass of water, juice or milk right there beside you if you'll ever try this at all.

Meanwhile, garlic parmesan is a crunchy chicken is wrapped in a creamy and salty glaze--a combination most people love. Then a generous helping of creamy cheesy garlic is coated in to add a nice kick of flavor to the already tasty chicken. The crispiness of the skin, when melded with the crunchiness of the chicken skin, gives an awesome kaleidoscope of textures into your mouth!

The kabasig is also good and worth to mention. Imagine bits of good ól bagnet minced to perfection on spiced mayo with green chilies and calamansi (Philippine Lemon). A great pulutan idea. You'd have to be ready to either crave for a few bottle of beers or order extra rice once you get a taste of this bagnet sisig treasure.
Although their claim to fame is their Hidden Wings, Kusina de Maria is so much more than that. They've got lost of other items in their menu too. I really enjoyed their Kabasig (Bagnet Sisig), but they have other dishes like french fries, nachos, hotdogs, cheese sticks, rice meal toppings and so much more.
