Aye Papito! As a Texan, I take my chili seriously. My…read morecredentials include judging an Official Texas Chili Cook-off, and competing in numerous others. Stopping into this little Tex-Mex Chili joint just blocks from the central train station made me feel at home. Their menu isn't extensive, but what chili shop's isn't? I went for the "Classic." What I got wasn't quite what a Texan would call "Chili." It had beans in it, which is a Cardinal Sin in the Lone Star State. Big no-no. But I guess they are Finnish, so I can't fault them too much. The meat was the smallest bit I've ever gotten in a chili bowl- but it was layered thick and deep with fresh tomatoes, cheddar cheese, onions, lime, and tortilla chips. The presentation was wonderful- it was colorful and looked delicious! The interior was small- they can only accommodate 5 diners, tops. But the cozy space inside is a great way to get out of the snow, and get some down-home Tex-Mex cooking! They play Spanish music over the speakers, but the staff doesn't speak it. The place is attractive, with cute water bottles, and fun place settings. It's a really nice looking spot, and they do make a welcome bit of my state's cooking. Bless their hearts!

It fell to pieces. The description said it had marinated avocados. Didn't their Mamma tell them, it's a sin to marinate an avocado. The chicken had a "nacho" breading. More like tevlar. I could not bite through it without having it in a vicelike grip. That did not stop all of the contents to unceremoniously spill out onto my plate. The inclusion of mango was also quite a bad choice. The best thing about was that it featured Hellman's mayonnaise. Also, the fries were not cooked right. Removal of mango and adding a fair amount of salt made it possible for me to finish the chicken, at least.
