Thanks , I didn't expect the dish to be so spicy . Are you ok ?

Yeah , I think the food is alright , it's not too spicy though it's a little salty for me . But you are Chinese , you should have known better .

Well , not every Chinese can handle spicy food in the way people from Sichuan and Guizhou provinces can . Back where I come from , people don't eat a lot of papers and chilies .

Oh , I see how this food can be really hard for you . I can sympathize with that . I stayed in Sichuan for a year . The food was difficult at the beginning . Every dish was so spicy . After a while though , I got used to the taste , and now I won't consider anything a real dish if it isn't spicy .

Yeah , you can increase you tolerance for spicy food , but so far , I haven't had the need or the opportunity . Every time I try spicy food , it is a total disaster for my nose and eyes .

I completely understand . I didn't intend on liking spicy food at first either , but when you have no other choices , you've got to adapt .

Yeah , I guess that's a typical example of ' when in Rome , do as the Romans do . '
