Backyard Discovery: Chili Lili's


photo: Adam Ryan Morris

It's definitely chili season. Last week the cold weather brought on a late night trip to Real Chili and a dinner at the new Chili Lili's in the third ward. I like the noisy lunchroom counters of Real Chili every once in a while but it's nice to sit down and have a real meal, like at Chili Lili's. I had a split of the Texas Chili and Southwest Roasted Corn Chicken Chili. The hub had the Cincinnati chili--it had a mild cinnamon/nutmeg/clove flavor to it. Let me know if any of you have been there and what you liked. I'll probably be back for a round 2 in the coming months.

  2. I just went to Chili Lili's too...I loved the atmosphere and really liked how creative the menu was. I had the Cincinnati chili over mac and cheese!
