The sentence that contains an example of verbal irony is:
"Seeing the untouched bowls of chili, the chef laughed. 'One of my biggest hits!'"
In this context, the chef is humorously stating that the dish is a success ("biggest hits") while the reality is that no one has touched the chili, implying it’s not actually a success at all.
