That's a "three way," I think its called.
There are 2 main chili companies in the GCA: Gold Star and Skyline.
Gold Star is the more traditional, Ted-Mex Chili. If you have the chili over noodles/spaghetti (not sure which it is and yes, there IS a difference), with cheese, its a three-way, as there are three layers of food (cheese on top of chili, on top of Spaghetti).
Skyline is special: its Mediterranean chili, which is more like a savoury/spiced brown soup, with meat in it: it tastes absolutely AMAZING. The same rules for three-way, etc, apply here.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong on the "way" description.
Gold Star offers a tex-mex i believe but its normal is also just like skylines.
the 3 way is the Noodles Meat Sauce( chili) and Cheese
4s add beans or onions and 5s add both
I believe Skyline uses a little cinnamon and goldstar uses brown sugar but i could have that backwards.
As far as eating while your here. If you dont have one near where you live and want a good beer check out the hofbrauhaus. Its across the river in newport (night across the street from Newport on the Levi if you need a landmark)
Its a traditional german beer hall(modeled after the one in munich germany) but man is their food good. and the beer is great.
