Chili from Hi-Lo Diner
Hi-Lo Diner
You might argue that it’s all about the beans, or the blend of beef, or precise level of secret spices that makes one bowl of chili superior to the next. Widen your control group and hone your findings (while warming your insides against October wind) with these worthy bowls.
Hi-Lo Diner
Sitting on a vintage diner stool while tucking into this warm and welcoming Kansas City–style pulled pork chili delivers both something old and something new.
Surly Beer Hall
Surly Nation demands something that can stand up to its complex beers, so no surprise that this bowl is overflowing with richly braised beef short rib.
The Loon Café
Since 1982, this Warehouse District bar has been known for its chili. Don’t miss the standard-setting turkey white bean chili or Pinto’s Diablo, which has just the right kick.
