Anaheim Chili

This is a meal I wish I could get back.  It was so bad that it ruined the rest of my Sunday. I couldn't find a way to be happy after suffering through the culinary punishment meted out by Anaheim Chili. In short, avoid this place like the plague.

I will start with the good --- what little of it there was --- and ease into the bad.The black bean chili was acceptable.  However, I found it to be a little watery, but that may be a personal preference. It was slightly spicy, meaty, and had a nice flavor.  For an extra charge, it came accompanied with a hunk of habanero cornbread. The cornbread was moist, slightly sweet, and had a tiny kick. 

Thus ends anything good I could possibly have to say about Anaheim Chili. Go there if you want some chili. But let's be honest here, who goes out to eat in order to get chili? Chili is the stuff I make five gallons of at home to eat off of for a week when I am running out of money. It just isn't exciting enough to be the mainstay of your restaurant. I know there are chili lovers out there, and I like chili too, but it is not a dish of sufficient substance to be the only good thing you serve on your menu.

I ordered an Anaheim pepper cheeseburger as my main course.  First, the restaurant had a whopping eight people in it, yet we waited over thirty minutes between when we finished our chili and when they brought out my burger and my wife's chicken sandwich.  At first I thought that the restaurant is just new and they are working out the kinks, but as time dragged on the wait became ridiculous.

Second, the burger that finally came out was the worst burger I have ever bitten into. It was dry beyond belief, utterly devoid of taste, and generally boring. Despite being very hungry, I didn't finish it. That's how terrible it was. My wife's chicken sandwich wasn't any better.

In conclusion, avoid Anaheim Chili.
