Had a similar experience when we took my mother-in-law to Chevy's (in socal)
the other evening for her birthday. After trying the default salsa asked
for something hot, and they brought a chipotle sauce that wasn't too
bad--got a bit of a burn after a couple bowls of it.
The special looked great. Hot Habanero Steak Fajitas! The 'habanero' salsa
was good, but damn if I could find any chile in it. The house salsa was
spicier. Marketing. :(
