The thing about a phall is that it's not, like, a real dish. It's the item they put on the menu for pricks who just want to be a hard man and "order the hottest thing on the menu". It's just an invitation for the chef to make you something inedible as a punishment for your hubris, but that also means it's not usually a very nice actual curry.
If you want a very hot curry that is still an actual tasty curry, vindaloo is generally your man.
Vindaloo is based loosely on a Goan dish of the same name, but like all of them the British version bares only a passing resemblance to its authentic relative (which really has more in common with the Bangladeshi style of cooking).
That's it - it's a stunt or challenge item. You also don't have to order it directly, you can be an insufferable prick to the waiters or feed the fish bits of your starter.
Learning so much about curry this week.
