Haymarket’sPalace Hotelhas introduced a veritable Mexican fiesta on Wednesday nights.
The centrepiece of these so-called Mexican Wednesdays is the Ghost Pepper Chilli Chicken Wing Challenge. For those who haven’t encountered it, ghost pepper (AKA bhut jolokia) was considered the hottest chilli in the world in 2007, but has since been superseded twice. In relative terms, it’s 900 times hotter than Tabasco sauce. Take the challenge, if you’re game, with a little help from the $5.50 Coronas and $9 cocktails.
