[quote=CHRISWAUGHBJ,37860]Sichuan is most famous, but Hunan is hottest. Hunan doesn't add the huajiao that numbs your mouth and dulls the pain. Hunan food is definitely the strip the roof off your mouth, sweating, eyes and nose streaming, breathing fire, seeing into eternity, mind floating away on a huge chilli-rush cuisine. 100% pure fire. Good stuff, I only wish my stomach could still handle it. Sadly, I've spent too long in the salty, un-spicy north. And it's definitely not for the tourists. If anything, they tone it down for us laowai. In my school in Changsha I used to eat breakfast in the cafeteria every weekday. The staff would place a large steel bowl of chilli oil (it's the oil that gives chilli its kick, remember) at the entrance. The teachers would come in, and at least half of them would ladle chilli oil into their bowls before getting their breakfast. And then some of the dishes that were served at lunch and dinner were literally just stir fried chillies. Large stir fried chillis.[/quote]
