Its very hard to find good chilli carne in Hong Kong, usually the good ones are from british pubs, there will be some Chinese versions served in places, but they tend to add tomato in it, making it more like salsa.
As this place specialises in Mexican food, that did the trick, also you have to go on the day they serve chilli con carne on the menu too!!
So today, I ordered the lunch set with soup, mains and tea.
The soup base was thin, sprinkled with fresh coriander, tomato based with rice and chicken in it, it also had a dash of chilli sauce giving it some spice.
Then came the chilli con carne, I chose Mexican rice and re-fried beans to go with it, the rice portion was small, and re-fried bean is just mashed beans. The chilli con carne was excellent, lots of beans, beef, and fully flavoured.
The restaurant décor is quite aztec mexican style, open restaurant over looking Lockhart road, but the only drawback is the air conditioning, not cool enough and slightly humid due to the open style.
Winter would be a perfect time to come here again, especially because the food was spicy.
