Chili's IS the Most Mediocre Restaurant in America

🌶️ Chili's IS the Most Mediocre Restaurant in America (Part 2) 🌶️

After 100 restaurant reviews, this was it. Chili's officially earned the perfect 5.00 out of 10, making it the most mediocre restaurant in America — the ultimate point of comparison for every meal to come. In this episode, I'm joined by returning guest VyVy Nguyen as we review the Encino location in full detail. From booth battles and dry wings to nostalgic chips and a molten dessert that hides its magic in the middle, we break down the exact moment Chili's became the standard of mid.

🎂 A Birthday Song False Start for the Ages
