Hot Challenges!



So there we were, fixated on the Travel Channel and Adam Richman. If you have never seen Adam’s show Man vs. Food, you should think about checking it out. It’s amazing some of the food challenges that are out there.

We thought it would be fun to feature some spicy food challenges in this post. Are you brave enough to try them out for yourself? If you come across a spicy challenge that’s not here, or that is and you try… let us know!!

Have some time to kill before the Broadway show up in New York City. Go ahead and head to The Brick Lane Curry House. Their Phaal touts itself as being more pain and sweat than flavor. If you finish this challenge, you get a free bottle of beer … think it’s worth it??


Have some business in Charleston, SC? Stop by Bushido’s and attempt their Spicy Tuna Hand Roll Challenge. For this challenge you must get through 10 levels of increasingly spicy Tuna rolls! There’s a pretty good reward, $25 gift certificate and a headband. If the headband is worn on subsequent visits you’ll get a free appetizer or small sake.

Visiting some friends in Richmond, VA? Figure out how to get them over to Caliente, for their stupid wing challenge. You must eat 8 wings in 30 minutes or less… not just any wings, you guessed it super spicy wings! The prize? This one’s the best … a tee shirt that says “I’m Stupid”. How can you resist?


 
After all these challenges, you might be ready to cool down with some nice dessert. If that’s the case, don’t do this one. Sunni Sky’s in Angier, NC serves up something called ‘Cold Sweat Ice Cream’. You must sign a waiver before even sampling the ice cream.

Good luck, and please, let us know if you decide to try out any of these challenges!!
