Roadfood Roundup: Chili

Mike's Chili!? Are you serious? That stuff is horrible. It's super greasy and tastes like it has been seasoned with spices that have been sitting around for at least 10 years. The place gets by just on "charm" and not the food. Yeah, it's a cool old place that seems like the perfect setting for a good cup of chili... until you actually taste the stuff! Ack!

Roadfood Roundup: Chili

Real Chili is excellent, however I think it isn't even the best in Milwaukee. That distinction should go to the Soup Ladle's Chunky Sirloin Chipotle Chili. Now that stuff is spectacular.

Roadfood Roundup: Chili

"and yet list two (???!!!) restaurants serving Cincinnati-style chili?"

I agree, Texas chili needs a spot or two or more, but only one Cincinnati style was mentioned that I noticed. If you are refering to Real Chili, that ain't it. The original there was Chili John's in Green Bay of which Real Chili is a decendant. My dad ( long gone) talked to me of eating there in the late 30s and 40s after watching Don Hutson and the Packers play at old City Stadium in Green Bay.
It is a different thing that developed all on it own far away from Cincinanati.
