    If I say I want spicy – I want to be in visible discomfort and bystanders should be concerned for my safety.

      I went to an Indian place once and asked the waiter to make my food spicy. It was kinda medium-spicy, and when the waiter asked if it was spicy enough, I–stupid white boy I am–said no. He took the dish back to the kitchen. He returned a little later with the chef. They both watched me take a bite and regret my decision. Through the tears, I told them the Spice was just right. They laughed.

    Pro tip: don’t ever tell a Thai cook their food isn’t spicy enough. They take their spice seriously, they take pride in it, and they like to dig it in a little if you ask for it spicier.

      Idk about you, but a really spicy pad Thai is 🔥

        Maybe, but I think his point is that pad Thai isn’t a spicy dish to begin with. So it would be a weird complaint to make in the first place.

          I don’t pretend to be an expert on thai food, so I can’t speak to the “traditional” way to prepare it, but in my experience pass thai being spicy is about 50/50 at restaurants I’ve been to, and there certainly isn’t anything wrong with asking it to be made spicy

            Pad Thai isn’t even a “traditional dish” in the sense that it s old and costumary. It was invented in the 30’s as a part of nationalist project.

              I mean, I’d say a dish that’s 100 years old is fairly old and customary at this point. Not ancient or anything, but 100 years is nothing to sneeze at

            If Thai people can throw tuna on waffles, I think you can have your pad Thai however you want.

    Just ask for Thai level of normal spicy and your asshole will burn for a week. When you ask for spicy and you are a non-thai they just skip spicy all together. If you feel spiciness that’s from previous meal and it survived washing the plate.

    lol the way you make pad thai spicy is with ground chili flakes on the side. Then you add as much as you want.
