Mediterranean Chili is absolutely delicious, but of course it isn't for everyone.

It is actually VERY complex with flavours and when added to the different ways to eat it in Cincy (I will ONLY eat Coneys or the Chili on its own; an Italian eating that, "pasta," is blasphemy), it adds further complexity to textures and consistency.

Again, it's not for everyone, but it is an incredibly-delicious and complex dish.

I've made it at home (the, "apparent," authentic Skyline recipe) 3 times now and it is INCREDIBLE. Mine comes out a bit-thicker than the OG versions, but alone or on Hot Dogs, just superb.
