Useless Factoid of the Day #3: Ema Datshi
Mmmm... spicy food.
I thought I was an aficionads of spicy food of all flavors -- jalapeno, habanero, tapatio sauce and wasabi. I am willing to try food that makes me tear like I was just in a chemical weapon attack. Eventually, after the spice has died down enough, I would still have enjoyed some aspect of it. I even briefly considered buying this T-shirt.
However, nothing I could do can beat ema datshi, the national dish of Bhutan. Ema datshi is a unique preparation made of chilies and cheese -- that's right, the chilies are actually used as a vegetable.
Mmm... now to find a friendly Bhutanese person or Bhutanese restaurant in my general area... or better yet just go there when I go home!
