Cincinnati is certainly judged by its chili. Some claim it’s not even chili, but those are just fighting words to natives who have developed the crave. Cincinnati is a long way from El Paso, and our chili is not Tex-Mex style. It is a unique blend typically served as a three-way: over spaghetti and covered in shredded cheddar cheese. From its 1922 roots with the Slavic-Macedonian immigrant brothers Kiradjieff in a burlesque theater, Cincinnati chili has become a more than $100 million industry supporting nearly 250 chili parlors. Many chili parlors have come and gone, but a few familiar names remain: Empress, Dixic, Camp Washington, Gold Star, Price Hill and Skyline. This is their amazing chili story. Book jacket.
