I mean, spicy foods might temporarily give your mouth a kick but i feel like an overall 'warm stew'/hotpot/etc would be ideal for a cold day or so versus something 'punchy', tho i can imagine some ppl enjoying a spicy pho

I've had fried tofu, idk how intense mapo tofu is but i wouldn't mind it as a small side to get used to it than it being a whole bowl lol

(Twice cooked pork sounds like it could be good depending on the crispiness (tho maybe with fried rice too versus steamed, one place i saw having it as an option only had it at 'lunch'/before a certain time as opposed to also it being late at night, otherwise i guess i'd pick the fried chicken, although while meshinuma seems to enjoy himself/not be too picky surprised we don't see more chapters of him cooking for himself. maybe one day he'll visit home and make a huge meal portion for his family)

nobody simping over him getting hot and sweaty from the spice? he usually wins the heart of at least the server

maybe everyone else was also too cold/eating their own spicy food to stare at him versus like the waiter/waitress lol if it wasn't also busy

I remember eating spicy ramen like this lol, it was absolutely destroying me but so tasty I couldn't stop eating it.

I don't believe Japanese people when they say something is spicy tbh

Spice tolerance might be lower but there is that "Korean fire noodle challenge", tho i'd hope some restaurants would have a proper spice to their meals as opposed to something store bought, but Meshinuma does tend to eat meat/filling stuff than stuff super spicy/bitter or so

Oh that is true, that's a thing nowadays. At the same time it's a popular complaint of foreigners living in Japan that restaurants running spice challenges usually don't present anything above a tickle 🤔

LOL i wonder if foreigners are banned from those kinda challenges unless they double the amount of spice when they see a non asian, I do hear some places will turn away non Japanese overall but that's a slightly diff story (but that would be one way to get a discount/not pay if it's not a 't-shirt as a reward')

tho there was also that foodie challenge with the 'kilo'/amount or so
