Yeah, I don’t find their noodles that particularly hot. I had some chettinad cuisine (mean valuvar) that was for real. I will say though that I’m some kind of big outlier for spice tolerance.
If you visit Tokyo definitely go to Coco ichibanya and take their spice levels somewhat seriously. They go from 1 to 10, (and special 20 edition) and even with my habanero and ghost pepper loving self an eight can make me tear up.
A couple swedish dudes came and sat next to me and ordered like a three or a four and had to order several glasses of milk. I have to assume most people from their country have experienced almost no spice at all.
