Friends:

Having recently spent a week in Billings, Montana, and having expected to
go through a week-long chile drought, I am happy to say this was not the
case. If you're ever in Billings, check out Walker's Grill on North 27th
Street, and ask if Mike Carmen is working in the kitchen. If he is, order
the Bourbon Street Pasta and tell them to tell Mike you want the Fire
Pasta. He'll add between 1 and 3 habaneros to the dish depending on what
you like- and I liked it a lot! 

The dish itself is sort of like a chicken gumbo (andouille, chicken,
peppers, tomatoes, etc.) except served over linguine instead of with rice.
It'd be excellent even in its pristine form, but with those marvelous
little slivers of orange habanero laced throughout, it was perfect. Mike is
one of the regular chefs there, and my friends in Billings tell me he'll
spice up anything you want, although I haven't been back to take them up on
it. 

Thought you'd like to know.

Jonathan.
