If I say I want spicy – I want to be in visible discomfort and bystanders should be concerned for my safety.
I went to an Indian place once and asked the waiter to make my food spicy. It was kinda medium-spicy, and when the waiter asked if it was spicy enough, I–stupid white boy I am–said no. He took the dish back to the kitchen. He returned a little later with the chef. They both watched me take a bite and regret my decision. Through the tears, I told them the Spice was just right. They laughed.
Pro tip: don’t ever tell a Thai cook their food isn’t spicy enough. They take their spice seriously, they take pride in it, and they like to dig it in a little if you ask for it spicier.
I ordered the only non-spicy dish on the menu and it wasn’t spicy ★☆☆☆☆
Spicy… pad thai 🤣 I said my tapioca pudding wasn’t spicy last time.
Idk about you, but a really spicy pad Thai is 🔥
Maybe, but I think his point is that pad Thai isn’t a spicy dish to begin with. So it would be a weird complaint to make in the first place.
I don’t pretend to be an expert on thai food, so I can’t speak to the “traditional” way to prepare it, but in my experience pass thai being spicy is about 50/50 at restaurants I’ve been to, and there certainly isn’t anything wrong with asking it to be made spicy
If Thai people can throw tuna on waffles, I think you can have your pad Thai however you want.
It’s so there’s a legal defense if they say it wasn’t spicy enough

Meanwhile, OP doesn’t say if it was spicy enough or if he went to the hospital because it was too spicy
I tried this at an Indian place. Regretted it. I don’t recommend anything above 5/10.
Just stir fry up some bird’s eye chilis and toss a few noodles in.
It’ll be almost spicy enough
There’s anything like “too much spicy”. Capsaicin FTW!
