Cincinnati chili
Cincinnati chili is a unique style of chili that originated in Cincinnati, Ohio. Unlike traditional chili, it is made with a blend of spices, including cinnamon and cocoa, giving it a slightly sweet flavor. It is typically served over spaghetti or hot dogs, and is often topped with shredded cheese, onions, and beans.
This dish is commonly found in local restaurants known as chili parlors. It is usually served in three ways: "3-way" with spaghetti and cheese, "4-way" with onions or beans added, and "5-way" with both onions and beans. Cincinnati chili has become a beloved regional specialty.
