CHASEN'S IN A BOWL

The restaurant may be closed, but Hollywood's favorite chili is back

When CHASEN'S opened in West Hollywood in 1936 as a modest six-table, eight-stool establishment, its menu offered not much more than barbecued spareribs for 35 cents a plate and chili for a quarter a bowl. As the restaurant turned into a quietly elegant, clubby Hollywood classic - a spiritual predecessor of Spago, if you will - ribs and chili disappeared from the menu. But the chili was always simmering on the stove for the delectation of anyone who knew enough to ask for it, and it evolved into a culinary cult item. Elizabeth Taylor had the stuff shipped in by the quart when she was filming Cleopatra in Rome and everyone from Greta Garbo and Grace Kelly to Frank Sinatra and Ronald Reagan was known to have enjoyed it at one time or another.

Chasen's closed in 1995 (another restaurant licensed the name, but it has nothing to do with the original.) The chili, though, is now being made commercially from what is said to be Dave Chasen's recipe and sold out of the old Chasen's premises. It is currently available in retail stores in the Los Angeles area (at the upscale Gelson's supermarket chain and the not-so-upscale Costco discount stores), and it is shipped frozen all over the country. No one would ever confuse it with funky Texas chili, but it is the same hearty, stand-up stuff I remember, full of beef and pork (which together constitute more than 50 percent of its volume) and pinto beans.

Other Chasen's products are under development, including the restaurant's famous Caesar salad dressing and cheese toast, and three new chilis: vegetarian, chicken, and ostrich (!). No KRAB Chili, though, sorry!

So, what SHAL appears to have is nothing more than a stake in an entity, possibly controlled already by G KRAb lOUSE, that had licensed the Chasen name, but is NOT connected to the restaurant of legend.
