The good folks at Chili’s have offered to give 1 Picky Palate Reader a $50 Gift Card to dine at one of their restaurants!!  They also sent  my family so we could share our dining experience of Chili’s new menu items with all of you.  Here’s how our delicious night of eating went down……….

We started with a cup of their new Chicken Green Chili Soup.  Let me just say, my husband and I LOVED this,  so much I totally re-created it!!  See my recipe HERE.

I know, so naughty, but then we tried their new Loaded Beef Nachos.  Um….Incredible :)

The boys ordered off of the kids menu, but picked at our food too :)

For our main course, we shared the new Carribean Salad, Mini Chicken and Beef Tacos and the Steakhouse Sandwich.  We really enjoyed all of these plates, especially the Steakhouse Sandwich.  The horseradish dipping sauce was AWESOME!

It wouldn’t have been appropriate had we not ordered dessert, so we ordered their new Brownie Sunday, which was pretty much devoured :)   Thanks for a great dining experience Chili’s!!

Enter to Win the $50 Chili’s Gift Card:

1.  Leave a comment and tell us…..“Do you order the same type of thing when dining out or are you daring and try new things off of the menu?” I’m a “new menu item” kind of girl, but my hubby typically orders the same things!!  So, let’s hear it!

2.  For 3 additional entries follow me on Twitter HERE then post the following on your twitter page….  @pickypalate is giving away a $50 Chili’s Gift Card, come check it out… http://tiny.cc/hA5Rw   (Leave 3 separate comments for this)

3.  For an additional entry become a fan of Picky Palate on Facebook HERE.  Leave a separate comment for this.

4.  For an additional entry join my site’s google friend connect under my “Foodie Friends”, right sidebar.  Leave a separate comment for this.

5.  Contest Ends Friday March 26th, 8am PST.  Gift Cards provided by Chili’s.

    I hardly ever get to go out so when I do I like to try something new and exciting!

    Corinna says:

    I like to try new things, the only caveat to doing this is, when you find something you LOVE and it is only for “a limited time” LOL

    My husband is really daring but I tend to like the same things. Once in a blue moon I will get the courage to order something else.

    It depends on the restaurant, but I’m a “same thing” leaner.

    Erika says:

    I usually order the same things. I do look at the other menu items in case something catches my eye.

  8. 308

    I try really hard to order new things each time, sometimes I do, but I do revert back to same old things if new things don’t jump out at me. but my husband orders something new everytime!! And I always try his food!

    I tend to be daring in my ordering. Though there are times I enjoy my favorites.

  14. 314
    Megan Dinsdale says:

    I try to be daring, but sometimes it’s scary to branch out. If it is at a restaurant where I have never had a bad experience, it makes it a lot easier to try something new.

  15. 315
    Katie Murset says:

    I usually mix it up with my ordering.

    I hate to be predictable, but I tend to order the same things. I know what I like. Maybe if I win gift card I will be brave and try something new!

    Barb in CA says:

    Oh, would I love to win this Chili’s Gift Card! My husband and I approach food totally different. He’s adventurous and loves trying new things. I’m timid about the “unknown” so once I find what I like I tend to order it every time I go back.

  24. 324
    grace says:

    i’m as boring as they come. case in point: i’ve been to chili’s three times this month and i’ve gotten the same thing each time–pulled pork mini tacos. so good! and don’t even get me started on their cinnamon roll shooter. ’tis divine.

  25. 325
    Karla says:

    I order the same thing every time I go to any restaurant. But that doesn’t make my diet very repetitive, since it’s not like I’m eating out (or eating at the same restaurant) every day or anything. But I LOVE knowing what to expect. And Chili’s is awesome.

  26. 326
    Lindsey Gruwell says:

    I always have the same things that I like, so I switch off ordering one each time. I wish I would expand, but I love certain food and enjoy getting it each time.

  27. 327
    Susan Gruwell says:

    My husband loves to explore different things each time he orders. I generally try some of his and order something different each time, but keeping with in the same ingredients. I’m not as wild as my husband!

  28. 328
    Kim says:

    Chili’s is my favorite restaurant. I love to try their new items, but always play it safe by ordering a cup of Chicken Enchalida soup. It’s my staple. :)

  29. 329
    Michele says:

    i LOVE ordering new things!!! and Chili’s is one of my favorite restaurant! everything i have tried is delicious! i always order their queso though- amazing!

    Angela says:

    I love your blog! I have made a few of the recipes you have posted and the hubby loved them:) Thanks! I tend to order the same things when we go out however I am going to try to breakout and try new things.

  31. 331
    Katrina says:

    All the food looks de-lish!
    I order different things, but do love when salmon is on the menu, each place it seems to be different. My husband on the other hand, almost always orders chicken fried steak (ew) if it’s on a menu!

  32. 332
    Tracy says:

    I always order the same thing…. I am so picky!!! My husband changes it up though.

    It depends on the restaurant. Some places I order my favorites everytime and others I try new things.

  42. 342
    Christy says:

    I go in with the attitude of trying new things, but then I usually order the same thing that I always get because I love it so much! My husband, on the other hand, it’s a new thing every time. :) So at least I get to try something else, right?

  43. 343
    Cylista says:

    I always order the same thing! occasionaly i’ll get brave and order something new but I’m typically getting the same few things!!

  47. 347
    Danielle says:

    I like to try new things! We eat so much of the same things at home that I want new stuff when we go out.

  48. 348
    Danielle says:

    Both my husband and I find something we like and stick with it. We branch out once in a while to spice it up but not too often.

  49. 349
    Lenae Trent says:

    I am kind of both sometimes I order the same thing sometimes I venture to try something new. Depends on the restaurant
