There should be more to good spicy food than just burning the crap out of you

I had a Chinese takeaway from the Royal City in Maynooth for the first time in AGES and decided to get Fillet of Beef in Black Pepper sauce, my favorite dish in C3. In C3 it is rather spicy and tastes of black pepper but also has more flavor and leaves your mouth in-tact enough to actually taste the food, the Royal City version tasted as if they had taken an entire packet of black pepper, pured it into some rubbish beef and added some water and thickener. It was so hot that I could only take one mouthful and it tasted of NOTHING but intense and sickeningly over-powering black pepper. I threw it in the bin and will not be giving them my business again.
