Today's consumers aren't just chasing the hottest pepper on the Scoville scale: they're looking for layered experiences: the slow burn, the cooling contrast, the lingering tingle, and the complex interplay of pungency with sweetness, umami, or citrus.

Desperately seeking cemita breade Cemitas Mane Mane opened a month ago at 2193 Mission St. near 18th Street, in the space formerly occupied by KO, a popular all-you-can-eat sushi restaurant that closed late last year.
