Stop #3 – Joey B’s Chili Hub, Cos Cob, CT
Their menu doesn’t show bowls of chili. Kind of odd given their name. The parking lot is small. A few spots in front and in back. Inside is small as well, good amount of seating, though and a few tables. You can see right into the kitchen.
The best thing about this place was the bathroom being really clean. My friend commented that if I needed to visit the bathroom, this would be the place to go.
They do have cups and bowls of chili available. I got a bowl with sour cream and onions. My friend had a cup and also a hot dog. The hot dogs are Sabrett.
This must be a style of chili up here. It looked very similar to what I had at Texas Chili in Port Chester, NY. Getting a bowl was a big mistake. I got it because the name of the restaurant says Chili Hub. I figured with a name like that this place must know what they’re doing. This stuff was disgusting! I don’t know why others have said the chili here was spicy. It’s not spicy at all. It had a sweet flavor and some odd taste in it that I couldn’t figure out what it was. I ate about half a bowl, and my stomach was starting to grumble. Had I continued I’d have genuinely been sick. I would not go back here and I would have rated it a 0 if I could.
