Lobsters, eh? One of my favourite kinds of seafood. I always feel sorry for them when I see them being prepared, though. In some Chinese kitchens, they tend to throw lobsters into boiling water ... alive. That's just cruel.

In my own opinion, my list of 'favourite cuisine' in the world looks more like this (based on the foods I have tried so far):

1. Chinese (and I don't mean the rip-off Americanised chop suey crap, but authentic Cantonese cuisine)

2. Italian (more for the pasta than the pizza)

3. Thai (I'm a sucker for spicy food and curry)

4. Japanese (though, other than sushi, I don't see anything else especially special)


As for spicy, apparently, the Naga Jolokia (Ghost Chili) is the hottest pepper in existence. On the Scoville scale (a measure of hotness), Naga Jolokia is rated at 1.000.000 scovilles, while Habanero peppers are only 8.000, and pepper spray 2.000.000. Yum.
