Blog 5

In the style of Wandering Earl

There are many things that can occur when you bring your non-indian friends to an authentic indian chat house to try one of the spiciest snacks- Pani Puri

Pani Puri is a really simple concoction, with a fiery punch. It's basically a crispy, chip-like, shell filled with green water. The catch is that the reason the water is green is because of the copious amounts of green chillies added to the water. Yeah, it's that spicy.

Some really REALLY like it...
Some aren't so sure how to react...
Some critic the smudged silverware relentlessly...
Some feel excrutiating pain...

The cause of such vastly different reactions to the said treat can be explained by my very legally-aged, college-attending older brother,

"The burn you feel after downing just one shell resembles the same feeling felt when you down shots"

A simple explanation. But this burn stays, you'll feel it for the remainder of your stay at the restaurant, maybe even the day after...

But the question is: Are you able to handle the burn? Are you brave enough to withstand the heat?

I challenge you to see how many shells you can handle in one sitting without giving up. If you can handle up to 15, I officially welcome you into the brown community.
