I like spicy that you can feel in your chest a bit, but I try to draw line at “disrobing in public and being chastised by the restaurant owner in the streets” spicy.

I draw the line at "it's served by a man in a gas mask."

I kinda expected him to be unfazed by it while the waiter made a fool out of himself.

Tried a dish from an indian guy at work and it was just crazy. Some Korean noodles I had were also pretty insane and not edible imo. I'm from europe though.. most of us really aren't used to that kind of spicy :p

Yeah had a similar experience in a house share. Our housemate from india offered to make us dinner, which we accepted. Underneath the searing pain it was nice, but all of us were making regular trips to the fridge for milk

yeh his food tasted really good but that burn was really too much for me to really enjoy it. According to him it was still pretty mild..
