Dallas area has great Tex-Amex! Lots of good independent restaurants and small chains, but please, help me understand why Chili’s is popular. There are two locations where I live, and I don’t understand why not the other places.

My guess is because their parent company, Brinker International, is based in Dallas.

And it started in Dallas on Greenville… it’s not Tex-Mex but I do love their skillet queso and old timer.

Chili’s is a struggling brand with no identity, its menu is not Tex-mex by any measure. Probably will not be around in the next 5 years.

Yepp .. they just closed down a location that is at a nice intersection on the border of Plano and Frisco

I would rather eat zero carb, zero meat, zero calorie than eat at Chili’s. Someone is keeping them alive though lol

As it’s been getting colder I’ve been dabbling in soups. This is a brie and mushroom soup paired with balsamic onion & mushroom toast. It was super tasty and really hit the spot. It can also be used in place of cream of mushroom from a can in recipes if you’re looking for a different taste.

When I negotiated my comp, all my discussions were around me being a junior and I only accepted my comp for that reason (would not have accepted if I was step above junior since it was low). Negotiations happened with HR, but my offer letter and documents never mention junior (but I have proof from HR saying I am a junior). How do I approach this with my boss as I’m not sure she’s aware I’m actually technically a junior? Revolving around asking for a move up + raise
