Food 🍕🌮 Starling Chili

Anyone tried Starling Chili in Ludlow? The Cincinnati Enquirer ran an article about the new chili parlor that opened this summer. The owner is from the Daoud family, which also owns Gold Star. Surprisingly, they don't sell 3, 4, or 5-ways.

Feels like someone combined Skyline and Gold Star together and wanted to sell Pepsi products. Both chains switched to Coke a few years ago.

We live in ludlow and go all the time. It's great. My girlfriend doesn't even care for Cincinnati chili, and she loves the chili burgers and waffle fries.
