Annual Riverside Chili Cook Off & Car Show

In between ¾ stars
first time at this event. The event runs down between Magnolia and Jackson street. If you can’t find parkings on sidewalk, you can park in the church’s parking lot which is located literally next to the event. The church charges $ 5 per car.
Upon entering the event, you will see around 15 – 25 American classic cars. After passing the classic cars, you will see vendors and food booths.
Although this event is known for their chili, I didn’t expect to try any. However, I did try this booth that serves hot dogs and fries. I ordered carne fries that cost $ 8. The amount given was «okay». The amount of meat was «okay». Wouldn’t have gotten it if I knew how much they put in it. And frites were pretty darn hard. Overall, wouldn’t recommend it and was not worth the money. Food booths seem to repeat, not much to try.
There is also a live stage of «mr. Elvis» singing. And a mini live farm that includes pigs; chicken, yak, and goats.
Overall, this is a pretty small event, would probably visit again next year. Who knows
P. s. Show up early if you want some homemade chili because by the time I showed up, they were all sold out
