You’d never guess that the hottest god damn restaurant is in Portland: Baka Umai (Pictured Ghost Pepper Ramen + Hellfire Mash). They make a Reaper Ramen that’s a true face punch

I’ve been obsessed with this Ramen place here in PDX, and I’ll seek out the hottest restaurants when I travel but it seems like the biggest heat bomb is in my home town.
Spicy soups seem to wreck me more than other foods, perhaps because hot liquid gets in your olfactory when consuming or perhaps the sheer volume/distribution of spice but the Reaper ramen is one of the few dishes that I find challenging. It’s more so what happens after it goes down, I’ll usually get extremely sharp pains in my guts that are absolutely brutal.
Any west coast recommendations or Great Lake state recs greatly appreciated as that’s where I find myself the most frequently, due to family and significant other’s fam being from the upper Midwest.

Ooh, I will have to try this out. Looks like they have a lot of vegan options too.

I just had a bowl of reaper ramen there. Good but I actually thought it was a bit underwhelming on the spice side. Apparently they have an off menu item called the red dragon or something that’s even hotter though. I’ll be giving that a shot next time I go.
