Rediscovering Uncle Chilli’s

The last time i hit Hilton’s restaurant & bar Uncle Chilli’s (7955 9122) was probably back in college. So checked it out recently for a little dinner, with a lil help from dining reservations portal QGuides.

Uncle Chillis serves uncomplicated, good quality Western, and Chef Carloz recently created a new a la carte menu.

Starter was a mojito, and moved to a Classic Caesar. Pretty good, considering i’ve never had a salad before. Thankfully there were bacon bits in it, which i aimed for like a sniper.

The mojitos were comin, then this dude from QGuides, Frat Mustard, decided to up the stakes.

After whacking a rich n creamy crab bisque and several whiskies, it was time to choose d main course. i went for Uncle Chili’s Burger ($25.30), which is accompanied by salad (that word again), fries, spicy salsa and some green shit. Guacamole probably.

Uncle Chilli’s has been renovated and is lookin pretty good now. There’re good options in terms of seating, with casual as well as fat cat set-ups.

There’s a good deal goin on, but only till March 15: on most nights, there’s A Table for Three, A Bill for Two – order three items from the burger, sandwich, pasta or pizza menu and get d lower-priced thing for free. There’s happy hours as well.

Checkout menu here.

Dont confuse Uncle Chilli’s with American Chili’s tho. The former is run by five-star hoteliers, the latter by five-star chimps.
