Since Chilis is just as omnipresent as Applebees and Ruby Tuesdays, you might be surprised that my first go of Chilis was during a long layover at Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston. Because of irregularities in my flight back from Quito, the customer service representative put me on a flight leaving 4 hours after I arrived. As a result, she also threw in a $12 meal voucher. She specifically recommended this restaurant because it was the only one in that terminal where I could sit comfortably. It should be noted that this was a Chilis Too, a smaller version of the Chilis restaurants you see all across the fruited plain. My first go of a standard Chili's came a few years later and not far from my house. A friend from out of town took me there.

Favorite Dish: Just before my first go, I had been eating everything but the kitchen sink in Ecuador (not to mention the horrible airline food), I decided to make a snack on salad. I ordered the grilled Caribbean which consists of marinated Caribbean chicken, spicy pico de gallo, pineapple, mandarin oranges and tortilla strips, served with honey-lime dressing. Since I had plenty of money left over on the voucher, I also had the regular house salad. The second time, not remembering what I had down in Houston, I had the Caribbean salad again.
