Chili My Soul- Closed Indefinitely
The sign on the door says that due to personal tragedy (the owner died i think?), the shop would be closed for an indefinite period of time. Seems like it must have happened a little while ago as the memorial service was in June, but I had not seen this mentioned on this board.

So sad to hear this. I was just craving Chili My Soul, and went to the website to see what they were offering today. I'm really sorry to hear about Randy's passing. Although I didn't know him, he created something unique--and delicious.

re: TragicSandwich
I caught a recent episode of the Food Network's "Chefs vs City," and they were at Chili My Soul... I hadn't read the news, so I was shocked when I drove out to it today! The "Chili My Soul" signs are all still up, the 2 tvs are still mounted, and there's a glass case with hot sauce in it. Does anyone have a happy update for me, or are all of those amazing recipes gone? How very sad if the owner's passing also means the end of his legacy! (Randy's family - please share the recipes at the very least!! Better yet, reopen!!)

"The restaurant will be closed due to personal circumstances, for more information please contact the restaurant by phone or email, and someone will get back to you. Thank you. "

Here is a blog that mentions Randy passing: http://familyoffood.blogspot.com/2009...
That is a very sad news. Randy was a true 'hound. I know people objected to the prices at Chili My Soul, but Randy created a unique restaurant that was the type of place these boards were designed to identify.
