Worth the Price of Addiction

Forty-seven and counting; that is how many chili varieties Johnny Kovin can choose from in his repertoire of 40 year old secret recipes when deciding what will be on the menu as part of the rotation in any given week. Chili Addiction is fast becoming just that - an addiction well worth the price for those who like heat with their meat. And with their beans, as this spot is a favorite of the foodie vegan community too. Though unusual to have such a devoted and loyal following from both sides of the pasture, Chili Addiction does, and with good reason on either side of the fence.

Usually you will find about 8 or so selections on the stove ready to be ladled up, 2 of which are guaranteed to be vegan. The other 6 versions run the gamut of the Chili Addiction catalogue; from the Traditional menu you may find Durango Streak infused with cheddar and bacon, from the Citrus Fix choices it might be Tangerine Chili, with chicken and yes, tangerines. There are Cocktail Hour selections that make the rotation, such as the Mojito Chili, and Mango Cashew Infusion from the Goin' Nuts picks. And the options just go on and on, whether a choice from The Latin American Connection, the Exotic Stash, Magic Beans, Hot Flash, or Garlic Cravings - each category is an abundance of deliciousness.

Chili Addiction is more than just chili. They offer other kinds of food that chili should top, like homemade hotdogs. Or a bowl of macaroni. Or cornbread, all made in house of course. They also make their own condiments, including a truffle mustard and a hot sauce that goes by the name of Lethal Injection. Every unique offering is made with high quality ingredients, and you can taste that distinction. There is one flavor though that does stands out amongst all others no matter which bowl you are eating; passion. This chili is made with a passion, and that you can taste in every bite.
