CHILIS TOMAS MORATO: New BURGERS and RIBS

CHILI's in TOMAS MORATO is the favorite restaurant of my dad. We used to visit this restaurant almost weekly and then some. It was his favorite so much so that when he went to the States, he chose this over other burger places.
As such, I was pretty delighted to get an invite to visit CHILIS and to check out their newest burgers and Ribs. For a weekday night, I was surprised to see the place packed.


It is also an awesome place to start your drinking spree on. They have affordable drinks mixed with tequila and even bottomless ones. This PATRON CRANBERRY mix has a nice kick to it.
For "light eaters", their SKILLET BBQ SLIDERS (435Php) are pretty good. 

I like the mix of the chicken, beef and pork carnitas. You get to pick from the pile and add bbq sauce and honey-chipotle sauce as well. The pickled red onions gives it a crunch.

CHILIS has 3 new burgers in their lineup.

The SOUTHERN SMOKEHOUSE and the SWEET and SMOKY BURGER looks identical but have different flavor profile. Both have bacon and crispy onion rings in the frey. The former has cheddar cheese and is more smokey because of the bbq sauce. The latter uses pepper jack cheese and a mango-infused bbq sauce. Something different and has a sweeter touch.
My top pick though would be the GUACAMOLE BURGER (465Php).
Accompanied by melted monterey jack cheese, the freshly made guacamole is perfect with the red and green bell peppers. It actually works well.
RIBS are the backbone of CHILIS. Aside from the burgers, these babies are wonderfully done. Moist tender and fall off the bones.
They actually have a couple of new flavors. The CHERRY COLA BABY BACK RIBS and the CHIPOTLE BLUEBERRY BABY BACK RIBS.

The CHERRY COLA is sweet and has a fizzle taste. Almost similar to the drink it self. The CHIPOTLE BLUEBERRY has a deep berry flavor. It isn't really overwhelming and it complements the meat in itself. I truly enjoy both of them.
CHILIS has a number of dessert dishes to try out.

The SKILLET CHOCOLATE COOKIE is topped with a huge ice cream scoop. The addition of hot fudge just made it more dangerous. Another reinvention is the FRIED CHEESECAKE. Cheesecake were deep fried to create a golden brown exterior crust. Yummy as well.
If you must have one, get the molten chocolate cake. The cake is moist and seriously choclatey.

CHILIS has been in the Metro for a long time. The addition of these dishes would give the diners a lot more variety to choose from. If you are visiting, I suggest that you get the Guacamole Burger. That's my top pick.

CHILI'S Greenhills and Donya's Baby Shower


NACHOS, BURGERS, MARGARITAS and more. These are the things that come into my mind when CHILI'S is being talked about. 

On a Saturday, the KTG, gathered up and had a lunch "surprise" for Joan's Baby Shower! Abet aka the foodalphabet aka the happy husband was in cahoots so we were not worried at all. We figured that we needed a nice cool place for this to happen. CHILI'S was kind enough to provide it.


Since the celebrant was not yet there, we went on ahead and tried the new stuff CHILI'S had to offer. 

PULLED PORK CORN CAKEs (325Php). This mini pancake like dish is a stroke of genius. Putting pulled pork on top with some onions made it a joy to eat. Just don't smell my breath though.

For healthy eaters , the ANCHO RUBBED TILAPIA (425 Php)was served. This fish dish has that twang to enhance tilapia's flavor.

For the big boys... like me. 

I enjoyed the next few dishes as well.

SWEET MUSTARD SEED BABY BACK RIBS (664/965Php)


and the SMOKE GARLIC SIRLOIN (845Php).

My brother loves ribs and steak and I can imagine him ordering both dishes all for himself. The ribs were tender. The steak was pretty soft and was a pleasant surprise.
 
For dessert, we were served the APPLE BERRY COBBLER (325Php)
 Interesting to note, their ice cream takes a while to melt. Because of this, I enjoyed eating the berries. Both contrasting hot and cold for me. It wasn't that sweet and fruits are healthy right?

After an hour or so, the guest of honor arrived.
 Here's Joan!!!!!
 Mr. and Mrs. Lim
 and the photobomber on the side.

It was fun seeing her smile and open up our gift. 

Irene of Indulgence by Irene also had brought mini cheesecakes!!! These are love!!!! Check her out on 
her facebook page . She brough Kalamansi (my fave), Ube, and Corn. I soooo love her cheesecakes! 

We were also glad that Bohemia Cakes & Pastries were able to send a cake on over. 
This beauty was perfect for the soon to be mother and father.  Check out their facebook page here.

Also another surprise was the giveaway. These beautiful and cute orbs were made by SHORTS GOURMET MANILA.
This whole thing is actually edible. Its made with the same stuff you have on cakes. 
Inside are short breads. Definitely a crowd pleaser and an awesome giveaway on any occasion. 
Check them out at facebook .

CHILI'S is one of the go to places of my family. Be it for a quick casual lunch or a snack with drinks in tow. I love that they are affordable specially for the price and the quality of food they serve.  Good for sharing, this is a place to go to with the gang. They also got unlimited alcoholic drinks so get ready for happy hour. Will definitely go back.
