as a man who loves the spice, there’s a little know secret i will share with you…Dunhill Cafe i think 45th between 6th and broadway (might be 46th). has a Cajun Chicken creation, i’ll get in a wrap with pickles and lettuce and they’ll heat up the whole thing on the grill. spectacular and as someone who definitely partakes in all the neighborhood kati rolls, etc, this sandwich is light and massively hot.

korean food. get the tofu stew extra spicy and eat it with kimchi. Try to go to flushing because they tone down the spiciness for all the yuppies in manhattan

@Tim j I love Biryani cart as much as any man could, but they don’t bring the spice that hard (as far as I’m concerned), even asking them to make it as spicy as possible was like half as spicy as 53rd and 6th. I’ve taken to keeping a bottle of the green top thai chili sauce on my desk to pep it up…

I routinely ask the famous cart for more hotsauce, and they never believe me. I need 4-5 good squirts, but I usually get the standard 2 squirts and 2 tiny little squirts afterwards.

Cafe’ Duke’s Spicy Soft Tofu Korean soup – it’s my tonic for my nearly seasonal sinusitus! garlicky, spicy and hot, it’s the perfect remedy.

Try Yatagans across the street closer to Bleecker…
i personally think their Shwarma is better but the Falafal is better at Momouns.

and what i do is…to balance out teh flavor so u dont get one big nasty bite of HOT sauce….ask for a cup of teh whiet sauce…then squirt in teh red sauce…mix and you have this creamy pink perfection of flavor…pour over teh falafal and enjoy!

Will second Samwich on the Mamoun’s (St. Marks location), though it is way out of bounds. Their hot sauce makes Sriracha taste like ketchup.

The off-the-menu Doritos, veggie and green hot sauce sandwich at that Blimpie on 46th is probably the most face-melting thing I know of. Beware, though, the consequences that will come later.
