Any Thai place. Tell them you want it "phet, phet". They will make sure, there could be a good laff in it for them.

 

Agree, any dish can be prepared very hot to mild by telling them how much heat yor want. Also at the table they usually have the chili to add to your dish if its not hot enough. I usually walk every day around noon as I'm not a golfer if you know what I mean, and many time my TGF will ask me to stop and get her some som tom, sometime it phet and other times it phet, phet. When I do this I get a kick out of watching the faces of other Thai's eating or waiting for their order. In Issan som tom (papaya salad) is called dom bac koon (sic) poo is crab and pa laa is the small fish they use. So I'll walk up and say, "dom bac koon, poo pa laa, phet, phet" They'll start talking among themselves about falang and many will smile and ask if I eat the dish. I tell them its for my girlfriend but that I can eat except without the poo pa laa.
