Since you are going to Virginia Beach, you might want to check out The
Peppers Lovers Club of Virginia Beach at:

There are two locations of Santa Fe Cafe, Arlington, Va. and Bethesda, MD.
Both are pretty good, though they can get loud and crowded at peak times.
Cajun Bankok in Old Town Alexandria, Va has an interesting spin on hot &
spicy, a combination of Cajun and Thai. Menu can be seen at:

Also in Old Town Alexandria is the Santa Fe East, a more upscale
Southwestern/New Mexican establishment. Menu at:

In new york I could recommend possibly my favorite Hot & Spicy restaurant
of all, Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill. This place was tops on my list even
before there was a Food Network. Menu at:

If you make plans for dinner in either DC or NYC you might want to post it
to the list and make it an impromptu Chileheads gathering. I know
(depending on the dates) I could do a meal in NYC...
