Yum! We love a good chili. From a great traditional chili to a five-alarm bowl at a chili cook-off, you can never have enough of this great dish. Did you know that February 24th is National Chili Day? This is the perfect day to make your own traditional chili, or you can get out and explore some of the great restaurants with chili in San Francisco. We hope you and your stomach have a great National Chili Day.

One of our favorite aspects of chili is that it can be combined with many great food dishes. Head to The Counter to get a classic make-your-own burger with some great chili side dishes. Their menu includes chili with cheddar, red onion and sour cream or turkey chili with cranberries and scallions. If you are not feeling up for an entire bowl of chili, order a plate of their delicious chili cheese fries. 

Vegetarians can even enjoy the occasional dish of chili at La Corneta. The taqueria has expanded from a small shop in 1995 to four total stores in the Bay Area. Head to La Corneta for a traditional or vegetarian chili dish. You can try their vegetarian chili relleno burrito or the chili relleno plate with rice, beans, salad and tortillas. There are even chili options for our carnivore friends. 

The Pinecrest Diner is perfect for the chili lovers that want something at 3am. This 24-hour diner is in the heart of the Tenderloin District, and it has a huge fan following. When you are craving chili at weird hours, head to The Pinecrest for their chiliburger with a homemade chili con carne and cheese. You can also try their chili con carne and cheese in a bowl or with a platter of cheese fries. No matter what the time, Pinecrest will help satisfy your chili craving. 

These are just a few of the many chili options you have close to your home at The Wilson. What is your favorite chili recipe? Share with us in the comments underneath this post on our Facebook Page. We hope everyone has a great and delicious National Chili Day.
