after several rounds of facebook messages, sms-es and ym chats, finally 10 of us were able to make it to chili's for dinner.
chili's does not accept reservation. we arrived quite early, requested for a table, and were given handphone-like device that'd beep when a table's available for us. we were told to wait around 40 mins, and the funny thing was that the device was usable only within 2nd floor. luckily we wandered around only for 15 mins before the thing beeped. we promptly settled in and waited for the rest to arrive.
since the portion was generally huge, we shared the food. I lost track of all the items ordered as I was seated at one corner. managed to snap only the dishes at my side: tostada chips, chili sauce, classic nachos, triple play, crispy honey chipotle chicken, and fajitas.
tostada chips and the drinks were refillable, perfect for sharing :) classic nachos came with sliced jalapeno on top, and guacamole dip. triple play was a starter item consisted of boneless buffalo wings (too salty and too sour), chicken crispers (so-so) and southwestern eggrolls (not that nice - springrolls would be nicer). the best item would be the honey chipotle chicken that came with corn and fries.
service was really good. the waiters were polite, friendly and attentive. and the bottomless items were really bottomless, they served the drinks regularly. the only hiccup was when my friend asked the waiter to pack the rib bones for their dogs at home - plastic bags came but the bones were thrown away.. =)
all in all it was a great gathering at chili's.
as the night was still young, we proceeded to the nearby dempsey hill for a cuppa. most cafes were packed, and we finally managed to get a small table for 7 at dome. it was my first visit to dempsey hill, and I was quite impressed. it was really different from other common destinations - lush greenery, open space. I guess I'll return one day.
