For our season one finale, we go back to the place where Spicetown was conceived: Howlin' Ray's. The hot chicken shop has practically taken over Los Angeles, and chef/co-founder Johnny Ray Zone shows off his encyclopedic knowledge of peppers and spice while explaining his personal connection with hot chicken. And we try the off-menu Howlin+...and the results aren't pretty.

We talk with LA's own Armando de la Torre Jr., co-owner of Guisados, about the history of the restaurant and its signature spicy taco, the chiles torreados taco. Oh, and we eat it, too...and we sweat and cough a lot.
