  • The Chain Gang


    Believe it or not, there are some people who don't enjoy a fine chain restaurant experience. For these hoity-toity snobs, it would be easy to write off the Chili's location #172 as just another in a long line of soulless Tex-Mex eateries. However, the true aficionado will immediately see the difference between Chili's location #172 and Chili's locations #1- #171 and #173 - #983.

    Tucked away in the corner of a New Jersey strip mall, Chili's #172 is managed by Scott Daniels. Daniels is perhaps most well known as the upstart visionary who revived the seafood chain restaurant genre in New Jersey with his work at the Long John Silver's on Route 22. When that became a Hooters, Scott went on to assistant-manage a Fuddrucker's. It was well known that he wanted to manage again, and he was immediately named as a top contender when a job opened up at Chili's #172. After two weeks of intense speculation from the chain restaurant community, Daniels was named manager.

    All chain restaurants live and die by their appetizers. Like Pizzarea Uno, Chili's Boneless Buffalo Wings are actually chicken breasts tossed around in a wing sauce. Though delicious, the wings at #172 were a little less spicy than you would expect to find at a Chili's. After popping four or five, I had to check my waiter's ID badge to make sure I wasn't at a Ruby Tuesday's.
