What They Ate
Quotes
"(Beef meatballs skewers) Meatballs were tasty, but to make things more interesting, throughout this entire tour, we're gonna be rating every dish on the spice meter, how spicy each dish is, out of ten, one being mild, five being actually pretty hot and spicy, but ten being just absolutely insane nuclear level."
"(Crispy chilies) On that bite, after taking like six whole chilies in one bite, I can feel the heat."
"You can see yourself eating a lot more of these than you had anticipated in your life, like you think you're gonna eat a couple skewers, suddenly you eat a whole pyramid of skewers because that sauce is so addictive."
"For these meatballs, okay, if you get six chilies on one bite, that does get pretty spicy, but most people wouldn't do that, it's more like the fragrance of the chilies, and you kind of eat that sauce and you get a little bit of those crispy chilies on there at the same time, so in that case, it's not that spicy, it is really tasty, I think it's like a three, three out of ten."
