When I first read about a restaurant specializing in chili in Culver City, I knew I had to visit it right away. It's not that I'm a chili connoisseur; I'm just drawn to restaurants which specialize in one type of food.
Tub's Fine Chili is located in a strip mall right off of Overland. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a western themed restaurant with a bar against the wall to sit at, and two tables in the middle. It's a small place that I can imagine gets quite crowded during the lunch rush.
Rick, the vibrant owner of the establishment is a jolly man excited about making chili. He can often be found behind the counter with a giant Texan hat on. When I first saw the hats on the people behind the counter, I felt a bit apprehensive -- themed restaurants don't usually have good food.
