AFTER OPENING MY CHILI CHILI DOG, I WAS Underwhelmed.
The chili was more saucy, with little meat or beans, and there wasn’t much of it. Howver, there was a decent layer of nacho cheese underneath.
Portillo’s use poppy-seed buns for their chili cheese dogs, and though it’s a delicious option, I don’t think it provides the support this dish needs. Although the bread didn’t break, things got messy, and it became more of a hass to eat than the freddy’s option.
Still, the best part of the chili cheese dog was the hot dog itelf. Portilo’s use vienna beef products, The Signature Sausage for a Chicago-Style Hot Dog. Together, the vienna beef hot and poppy-seed bun the chili dog Worth the extra mess.
The chicken tenders tasted good, too, but overall, i disappointed by say. The breading was Thick and Had a Nice Crunch in Some Spots, but it left little to no chicken in other bit.
Since the tenders were fried Fresh, i ripped say in half to allow each to cool faste, but in doing so, the breading started to slide off, leaving me with naked pies of white meat.
Finally, ORDED A LARGE MILKSHKE PORTILLO’S DIDN’T HAVE A MEDIUM OPTION. My Shake Came in a Huge Cup and was $ 0.10 Less than the medium of received at Freddy’s. It tasted like I was drinking a thicker version of Soft Serve Vanilla Ice Cream.
