"In what comes as a pleasant surprise, this UIC sports bar delivers a well-rounded chili. The simple dish is loaded with tender ground beef, some spices, and all of the customary add-ons like cheeses, onion, and sour cream. So even though the Bulls and Blackhawks might disappoint fans, at least the food won’t." - Jeffy Mai
