I dont do take outs i make my own curries etc and even have family with a order list for them lol .... never get paid owt though!

I don't do Curries full stop, never have never will!! lol!! I like to taste the ingredients i'm eating not just the curry powder, or chillies etc!! lol!! So i've alway prefered Chinese restaurants over Indian and other cultural restaurants that use hot spicy chillies etc to mask the taste of the actual ingredients.

Chillies are an art you get tolerant to them and the flavours come back through with tolerance ... if you go above your level you just can't enjoy the dish ... im an avid hot dish freak ... got the ghost chilli sat on my herb rack which is several orders hotter than your curry hole.. admittedly only for the brave and a few pints pre-empt, oh any i forgot to wash the hands after prep and the tinkle to the toilet was one very painful experience indeed .

I enjoy a Nando's every now and then extra hot with extra extra hot side sauce and now find this mild... our lass gets curry sweats on the mild lol

I'm also quite partial to a Nandos meal once in a while although lemon and herb/mild is about my limit.

I'm partial to spicy stuff myself

Although nandos in this neck of the woods comes in bottled form.

Sauce and marinade

I'm a chili lover too. Don't really go a day where I don't put hot sauce of some description on something. Vindaloo usually leaves me cold though...all heat and no taste. A local place does a very good phaal though, very hot but heaps of flavour too.
My hot sauce of choice lately has been some Bajan pepper sauce brought back for me from the Bahamas. It's a mix of scotch bonnets, onions, turmeric, and vinegar. Really tasty !
