   That's something that really annoys me.  They (servers) smile,
nod their heads and bring me something far short in the heat
department.  I don't care which sauce they have on the table, or
what concoction the cook sends out for me to mix in.
   If I had wanted to do the cooking I would have stayed home.  If I
am expected to do the cooking I want a dang discount (does not
apply to certain restaurants that expect you to cook your own).
   I want the dish at the desired heat level, no argument, with the
heat cooked in, not sloppily added as a raw-tasting goo after being
served.
   Yes, I know about "being a repeat customer" and "getting to know
the staff" so I can "gain their confidence" that I can handle the heat
and not send it back complaining about too much heat.  But this
happened at places where I WAS a repeat customer, KNEW the 
owner/chef and his wife, was KNOWN by the staff that had to keep
fetching the chopped chiles in oil.  They still cooked with  insufficeint
heat.
