At Lunch Now: It’s a Texas Red Kind of Day
It’s freakin freezing outside today, so I had no choice but to go for my favorite non-soup, gut warming lunch: a bowl of Texas style red chili from the Daisy May’s cart on 50th btw 6+7th. It’s a beanless
chili (your co-workers will thank you) filled with big chunks of super tender beef. Cheese, sour cream, onions, and a tortilla come on the side, all for $7. I don’t know if the tiny cup of rice and beans was
worth it, but I was glad to have it at the end to mix with the leftover sauce and condiments. Slightly spicy, completely satisfying, and most importantly- it warmed me up.

I got this a couple weeks ago and could not finish half of it. I found it pretty gross and was nauseous after, almost had to go home early from work. I guess it just comes down to personal tastes, and I love the bbq sandwiches from the cart, but the chili did not float my boat.

Dude, I kind of really like Daisy May’s and wish they’d bring back their Wall St. cart. We need some of this down here.

Drool! You’re making me hungry and the cold weather isn’t helping at all!

Beanless chili is redundant. Chili has no beans, in spite of what those in the northeast, who incidentally did not invent chili, think.

I love the chili from Daisy May’s, but haven’t gotten it in a while because I moved to an office further away. Still, I’m gonna have to hit it up soon. I usually just have him put some hot sauce in it and forego the sour cream, etc. I also really dig the huge mason jars of sweet tea. I think they’re like $4 now, but at least it’s 32 oz. and you get to keep the jar, which is helpful for preserving your victims.
Everyone’s getting soup today. I went for the dan dan noodle at Hing Won and it was more packed then usual, which is to say extremely.
