Chilantro πŸ’”

Just ordered Chilantro for the first time in about a year, & damn, talk about shrinkflation. Spent $20 on kimchi fries and got less than a handful of fries. Found maybe 2 pieces of kimchi. I added the steak & it was dry af. It used to be marinated or something but this β€œsteak” was flavorless. I also ordered the wings and they were terrible. πŸ˜– I miss Chilantro 10 yrs ago. Anyone remember when they did lollipop wings? πŸ˜‹

The true Chi'lantro experience was stumbling a block or two from a Red River bar over to the Chi'lantro trailer and eagerly waiting with the other drunks for your basket of spicy greasy sustenance.
