Spice Lovers, Test Your Tolerance At This Sydney Chilli Eating Contest

Spice lovers in Sydney, you don't want to miss this event. It's a Chilli Eating Contest at SoCal in Neutral Bay – the seventh annual of its kind. Supplied Part of the venue's month-long Taco and Tequila Festival, the event on Thursday, May 15 sees competitors working their way from mild jalapenos to fiery Carolina Reapers, all in front of a cheering crowd. You'll be up against reigning champs, newbies and covert fire dragons, folks you'd never think could handle the heat. The winner will get a trophy they display on their mantlepiece at home or work desk, a $200 voucher to spend at SoCal, assorted merch and, of course, bragging rights. Supplied Because the event's on Thursday, May 15, it coincides with the Fiesta's Tommy's Thursdays where you can get a Tommy's margarita and enchiladas for only $40. So basically, dinner, drinks and a show for the same cost as a few Opal taps. If you can't make the Chilli Eating Contest, the Fiesta has heaps of other events on. Supplied There's a speed-eating contest on Thursday, May 22 where competitors will see who can finish off 10 signature tacos the fastest. That event's open for spectators too but if you want to join in, it's $30 entry that includes a Tommy's margarita on arrival. The annual Taco and Tequila Fiesta is now in its seventh year, running from Saturday, May 3 to Saturday, May 31. Supplied It features weekly specials, like Taco Tuesdays ($4 tacos and $15 margaritas), Wing Wednesdays ($10 for six wings) and Bottomless Fajita Fridays ($35 for bottomless fajitas). Mondays in May are Family Fiesta specials, which give kids free cheese quesadillas with an adult purchase. And on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, you can order a bottomless lunch or dinner package for only $99.
