Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavor: Delicious chili with good spice and flavour combinations, though some found it a bit bland.
  • Suggestions: Consider adding cheese and chive biscuits as a side dish to complement the chili.
  • Portions: The chili was so tasty that it was difficult to have any leftovers.
