Honestly, would have to be chicken wings. Which are done purely out of bravado.
The heat adds nothing but pain.
May as well eat a ghost chilli or something.

I used to ask the original Indian restaurants in my area to spice up my dishes...which used to taste just “ketchupy”.
I didn’t understand then that just adding chili powder on top didn’t work and that it had to be built from the start.
A Vindaloo here was a lot milder than a regular chicken curry back in the UK.

I did meet my match though in a restaurant in NYC.

Now they are a lot more authentic, not necessarily spicier so wouldn’t ask.

Making one right now...hope it turns out well.
