I was hoping for a savory flavor, I got a weird spicy flavor. I never had Indian food but I want to try it. Nevertheless, it is a good taste. For a split second I was mildly infuriated tho.

This story is secondhand.
My brother's first wife was Indian. As a result, he experienced many cuisines he wouldn't have locally in the US. Apparently, she once took him to an Indian restaurant which offered a variety of spiciness levels; he, having been exposed to Indian cooking in the past, thought he could handle it. As such, he ordered the spiciest level of whatever he was eating.
The owner of the restaurant apparently came out and tried to talk him out of it, but he insisted. They prepared the food as requested and he ate it. At the end of the meal, his eyes and nose were running. Per his telling, the owner came out after he had finished it to ask how he had liked the meal. He said that he liked it but that it had topped out his spice tolerance.
According to him, the owner then responded "I thought so. That's why I only gave you medium spice."
Ive been experimenting with more indian vegetarian dishes as meat gets more expensive and lemme tell you even the imported spice mixes or sauce mixes at "mild" are like taking my life in my hands. Indian and indonesian people are on a whooooole other level of spice tolerance.
I have IBS and have always wondered how someone like me in India would even survive.
The spiciness level in some places is really insane. My wife is Indian as well, but she doesn't tolerate very spicy food. I handle it a bit better, but some of the stuff her brother eats would just leave me crying in pain, and again a day later.
In restaurants when they ask which spiciness level we want my wife usually asks if they mean Indian spicy or if it has been adjusted to the country we're in before making a decision.
I usually just take the minimum offered. I don't mind a bit of spice but it's never been the reason I enjoyed a dish.
Glad you shared. This was delightful.
I wish you could have heard it directly from him! He's a much more talented storyteller than I. Regardless, it's great that you enjoyed it!
