And you weren't offended by the warning . . .I'm lucky enough that the only times I've been hurt by prejudice (directed toward me) were when I couldn't get spicy food.
Once a chef poked his head out the door and checked out our table (nearly as white as paste) before giving me the dumbed down version instead of what I'd wanted. Once a waiter told me not to eat the chilies in the curry (after I had had two). That restaurant figured me out and became my regular spot.
I still know that I'm lucky that that's the worst of it and I'm not actually offended, just pleased to find some places around here who don't doubt my word.
"Vaguely offended", heh.
