I’ve been to Skyline,Camp Washington, Empress, Dixie, Gold Star and Price Hill chili and never had sour cream, green onions (White yes), or crushed tomatoes.
Dixie is close with the Garlic,Onion,Bean,Cheese,& Pasta 5-way, but you have go to Newport to get it served correctly. I toss in a Rolaid to make it a 6-way.
On this side of the Ohio, Skyline is the standard. Damn I’m hungry.
