Posted at 11:45 pm in closing

I was not aware of Chile Caliente, and so never ate there, but I do remember this suite as the final resting place of local Mexican chain Taco Cid. Judging by the door note, two locations of this brand remain in the area, so perhaps one day I will get a chance to try it.
