Massala restaurant to host 'Taste of Chilli' dinner
The Massala Restaurant in Cobham is collaborating with the publisher of the Good Curry Guide, Pat Chapman, to host a 'Taste of Chilli' dinner on 23rd September.
The 'Massala Inferno' features a dish called Lal Maans and that contains Infinity Chilli Sauce, which comes from British producer, Fire Foods. Fire Foods recently hit the headlines after it created a chilli so hot it has the same potency as 50 Scotch Bonnet chillies. The company hopes it has the potential to set a new world record. Those brave enough to eat the chilli from Fire Foods would be unable to stand still for more than a second and could be laid out for several days, hence why Massala is serving a slightly tamer version in the sauce. Dishes on the set menu will be starting at a low heat and then get hotter and hotter. The set menu costs £24.95, which includes a chilli cocktail and chilli chocolate. For those up to the challenge, Massala warns that places are strictly limited and that the dish – which comes with a disclaimer – will only be available for a limited period only.
