    Any restaurants in Buenos Aires with Spicy food? I consider myself a devoted enthusiast of intensely spicy foods. While I can handle the heat of jalapenos, my true passion lies in anything reaching the level of habanero heat or beyond. I've triumphed in many competitions of eating the spiciest...
