Chili’s Philippines Celebrates 25 Years With New Menu and Promotions
Chili’s Philippines is celebrating its 25th anniversary in the country with a series of exciting promotions and a new menu that promises an even more flavorful dining experience. Get ready to taste five new items that will surely entice you to keep coming back for more.
Chili’s is of the country’s most well-loved restaurants and I always enjoy eating here with my friends, especially when they have their unlimited Margarita offers. They will be releasing new promos and giveaways every month for the entire 2022 so it will be a whole-year celebration. I visited Chili’s Greenbelt last week with my friends to check out these new items and to see how the restaurant has thrived even during the pandemic.
Chili’s continues to offer its distinct mix of Southwestern-inspired and classic American and international flavors. With more than 1600 locations in over 32 countries and 14 branches in the Philippines, Chili’s continues to be a popular hangout spot for families, friends, and anyone looking for good food and a relaxing venue.
The Greenbelt 5 branch is one of the most popular Chili’s locations in the city, especially with its big al fresco dining area overlooking the busy Greenbelt shopping and dining areas. Those who are still not fully confident dining out can choose a more secure spot with their spacious outdoor seating.
The last time I dined here at Chili’s Greenbelt was three years ago before the pandemic, so I was really happy to see how everything is almost getting back to normal.
To celebrate their 25th anniversary, we ordered a few cocktails to liven up the afternoon. The Strawberry Vodka Margarita (P340) comes with Absolut Blue Vodka, Cointreau Orange Liqueur, house-made fresh lime sour, and strawberry purée. I also tried the Tequila Red Sangria (P320) with its Red wine and 1800 Tequila shaken with organic agave nectar, triple sec, and fresh lime juice then topped with 7UP.
One of their ongoing promotions this year is Tipsy Nights. Guests can enjoy a Buy One, Take One deal on Chili’s Pomegranate Margarita available all day, everyday.
We started our lunch with some Classic Nachos (P450). These crispy nachos are topped with melted cheese blend, jalapeños, beans, queso and a hint of seasoned beef. They are served with house-made pico de gallo and sour cream.
The Triple Dipper (P625) is also a good appetizer for the entire table. You can choose any three items from among Original Chicken Crispers, Signature Wings, Southwestern Eggrolls, Onion Rings, or Calamari.
Now here are the five new items on the menu at Chili’s Philippines. First is the Salsa Bacon Pasta (P450) with its penne pasta tossed in spice tomato and cream sauce. This tasty treat is then topped with bacon, cheese blend, southwest Cajun spice, and house-made pico and cilantro.
The Green Chile Chicken Enchilada (P520) is another interesting new item. It comes with shredded chicken, green chile sauce, cheese, corn salsa, cilantro, house-made pico, black beans and Chili’s rice. This one has a more tex-mex cuisine feel to it and should offer diners some new flavors to explore.
One of my favorites that afternoon was the Ancho Chile Salmon (P740) with its seared chile-rubbed salmon, spicy citrus-chile sauce, cilantro, and white queso. It is served with Chili’s rice and steamed fresh veggies to complete the healthy and refreshing meal.
Burger lovers will surely enjoy Alex’s Santa Fe Burger (P520). This is the creation of their own Chef Alex who crafted this beautiful burger with avocado, Swiss cheese, red onion, roasted jalapeños, tomato, pickles, cilantro & spicy Sante Fe sauce. It comes with french fries on the side.
They saved the best for last because the Beef Tenderloin Steak (P895) is definitely my favorite among the new items. I am a certified steak lover so I obviously enjoyed this 8 oz. US Tenderloin steak served with chimichurri garlic potato and steamed fresh veggies. Chili’s steak and chimichurri sauce is also served on the side.
The new items are great additions to the already jam-packed lineup of flavorful dishes at Chili’s. You can still order your favorites like the Country Fried Steak (P595) with its hand-battered beef steak, mashed potatoes and black pepper gravy served with sweet corn on the cob.
I also love ordering the Beef Salpicao (P825) with its grilled marinated tender steak tips sprinkled with garlic flakes. This is also served with Chili’s rice and steamed fresh veggies.
Then there’s the Cherry Cola Baby Back Ribs (P725-Half Rack). These tender baby back ribs are slow-smoked over pecan wood and basted with a sweet cherry cola glaze. They are served with homestyle fries and grilled corn on the cob.
To cap off our meaty afternoon, we had the High and Mighty Pie (P330) for our dessert. This huge plate has vanilla ice cream piled high over a crushed Oreo cookie crust and drizzled with caramel and hot fudge.
Dexter’s birthday week was made more special when the Chili’s crew offered him his own Molten Chocolate Cake (P395) accompanied with a birthday greeting. This warm chocolate cake comes with chocolate fudge filling and is topped with a big scoop of Vanilla ice cream covered in a crunchy chocolate shell.
