Message: [QUOTE="hank970, post: 4146970, member: 6349"] When uninformed folks hear the word "chili," they automatically assume it's a Tex-Mex concoction or some crap out of a red can. But Cincinnati chili is Greek in origin, and the chili joints in Cincinnati, whether one-offs or chain outlets, were started by Greeks. They're as common there and as varied as pizza joints are in Connecticut. An acquired taste, perhaps, particularly if you're expecting Tex-Mex, but Cincy chili is delicious in its own right. Just different. Some of the better joints, like Camp Washington Chili (once judged by CBS News to be the best in the country) have singularly impudent waitresses, which just adds to the fun. [/QUOTE]
