Here in Finland it's quite typical that every Far-eastern style 
restaurant compromises heat levels to "finnish taste", which practically 
means that cook has eaten all chillies himself. Biggest problem is that 
even when I really ask them to make it hot, they still think that I 
can't take the heat and use only tiny amounts of chiles.
