Quality all the way - excellent food, really fun place. I worked there in the late '70s and early '80s with Blondie, Francis, Dan, Judy and all the 'old' gang. My strongest memory was of a peculiar fellow who would come in on weekend nights (we were open till 3AM)and drink coffe for hours on end, always left a 50 cent tip. On the day Jeffrey Dahmer was arrested, he stopped coming. Same guy. But, like I said, the food is great, the chili is very memorable and it's a fun place to stop in for a meal on a cold Milwaukee winter's day. - former employee, 02/24/2007
I remember Blondie, and Francis Honish who owned the place. Francis and Marion Honish owned the restaurant until, I think 1977 or so, when it was purchased by the Helfer family (Seb Helfer was a Marquette University employee; his son Dan runs the business still, I believe. When I started going there, a bowl of mild/med was $0.90 and hot was $1.10, and it would not be unusual to have derelicts perform in the store or a group of college students moon the entire store.

This is the absolute best, hearty, robust chili I have ever had the experience to taste.' This all coming from a Texas boy that takes pride in making some mean chili, and have experienced some of the best chili right here in Texas. Real Chili has them all beat! Congratulations Milwaukee! - D. Freitag - Texas, 11/10/2004
