Well then they were being stupid because obviously it's an actual authentic Indian restaurant they're going to do the spice properly.
Well, the logic was sound: Utah really is quite bland in every way - or at least it was in the 90's, not sure now - and if I was an Indian opening an Indian restaurant there, I'd tone down the spices to suit the local palates.
They added a slip 'n slide :D
“Authentic” Indian restaurants in the West are fuck all like food in India. Indians are not there asking for more and more chilli in their dhal to impress their mates after the pub. It’s an India theme park for lager louts.
God forbid the waitress sitting there hearing this conversation give them more than a you sure after hearing they thought it would be bland because that's the entire town 🙄.
Man, after hearing that conversation she probably asked for a 10. "'White man's burden' go fuck yourself sahib, have fun with the curry Mr super exotic London man."
I have also 100% had wait staff do that to me, I learned my lesson after the first time.
