The helpful room service order taker

So last night I decided to go outside my comfort zone a bit and order Indian food for room service. My choice - Garlic Naan and Tandoori Murg (chicken). These are two things I really like, so I wanted to see how the hotel would do them.

As I made my order, the order taker said, "Are you sure you want it to be spicy? Foreigners usually don't like it very spicy." This is true - I have a hard time how spicy food is here in S. India. So I asked for it to be less spicy. He said he'd be able to do that, and we ended the call.

A short while later he called back. "We can only make it medium spicy," he said. Adding, "If we make it less spicy, it just won't taste the same." So I agreed to medium spicy, and when the food arrived, it was actually great.

I just thought it was interesting how accomodating they were for my palate.
