Curry is good. Don't take offence as it was not intended, though clearly I have struck a nerve. Or something.
 
You must have a weak tongue to find a Vindaloo so hot that your face is about to fall off!
 
a proper vindaloo aint sposed to be burn your face off hot, its a very misunderstood curry imo.

a properly cooked one should be not much hotter than a madras but more garlic/ginger based.

its one of my favs and madras/kahari :D
 
Dont eat it with rice. A spoon and a plain or coriander naan bread is the ticket. Makes all curries taste superb.

You can do two mains this way if you're hungry and not get too full.

I had a King prawn phaal in Newcastle town centre a while back and it was one of the hottest I have ever tasted.

Try something that is spicy, but not necessarily hot. Like a Korai/Karahi/However the restaurant chooses to spell it, especially if you're a fan of tomatoes and peppers. Maybe try Dupiaza/Dopiaza if you're an onion lover.

Love a Lamb Korai :) It's like a tastier Jalfrezi!

I like hot food, but would much prefer something tasty.

Does anyone know the scoville rating of a vindaloo and phaal?

Actually, it looks like a Phaal can go upto 1.2million. JESUS

I had a finger tip amount of mad dog 357 hot sauce and it felt like I almost stopped breathing. God help someone eating a whole PLATE of 1.2million scoville curry

Tried a phaal once, out a jar from asda (pataks). managed about 6 fork fulls before I felt anything (takes a while to hit).

Had to get up.

Walked to the couch and felt dizzy! I normally make curries from scratch and eat a vindaloo quite regular.

Not for the faint hearted!

On another not if anyone wants to try making them like the takeaway check this guys pdf! Genius! http://www.curry2go-online.com/index.html
