Poll question: How hot do you like your spicey food?
I like it hot,though sometimes I get on a kick and slather everything with hot sauce.

1. There's more than one type of hot
there's the sting hot, and then there's the lovely, multifaceted warming hot that just makes your mouth water

not such a big fan of the stinging hot, it's boring

It was sooo hot,I stuffed some of the rice that they had as a side dish and it was hotter then the chicken. This was at a Jamaican booth.

9. I went to a Jamaican restaurant once...
It was really good. I forget the name of it but it's on Bloomfield Avenue in Montclair, NJ. Anyway, I went there with a friend to see Gina Ferrera, kind of African drumming but with English lyrics. I think she's really good and I recommend her CD.

The place definitely had the laid-back Rasta thing going on. We called ahead to ask if they had a bar and we were told they did. When we got there, we found out that yes, they physically had a bar, but they did not have a liquor license. The waitress told us that we were welcome to bring in anything from outside, so my friend went across the street and came back with a 6-pack of Red Stripe. We both ordered the Veggie Wrap, which was listed as not-spicy on the menu. It took a good hour or so to get to us, but we had beer and music so it was okay.

I loved it. Just rice & shredded cabbage, carrots, etc in a wrap. However, it was probably one of the hottest things I've ever had to eat, and I order my stuff made "hot" at the Indian restuarant. My friend was barely able to eat hers but I gobbled it down.

3. I like my hot food hot. Sometimes hot hot.
It really depends on what it is.

5. I don't want the hotness to overcome all the rest of the flavors.

But I do like it HOT.
