Yes, Gonzalo is right.  Chupetinha and Biquinho are the same.  These two words actually are synonyms.  Some regions use the word Chupetinha for rubber nipple and other regions call it Biquinho

It's a very mild chile, with almost no heat at all.  It has a nice chinense-type fruity taste.

There is also a hot version of it, which is usually called "Biquinho Ardida" (ardida means "hot").

13.09 is good to me

I'll be driving on my car from Ruoholahti to the restaurant, so, if someone needs a ride, we can agree on that.

Same deal, send me a private message and we can agree on something.

Sounds good!

Fatalii mentioned one good restaurant in Espoo where you had taken him once... I guess it's that one

One Pakistani friend of mine also mentioned Peshawar once... he said it's good

13.9.2007 suits me fine

Hi!

I'd love to join, if you don't mind having a non-finnish-speaking-brazilian-chilehead at your table

Santa Fé is really nice, they have an excellent extra-hot chile sauce there (but you need to know how to ask )

When are you planning to meet?

Cheers,
Luca.

:lol: Heheh! I can't remember having said that, but I might have I probably meant something more like "masochists" or something :roll:

Is this the right thread about that Kebab thingy?

If yes, I'm in too!

You can see some of the pictures I took at the picnic here:

- Rocopica c.cardenasii (ripe & raw)
...

BTW, Tommi, those pods you brought were Rocopicas, right? I wrote Ulupica instead of Rocopica, but since we were talking about them being a cross or not, I guess they were Rocopicas as you wrote earlier.  Is that right?

Yeah! I've been there too those were the side-effects I was talking about OUCH! OUCH! OUCH!

Yes, thanks to you all! It was great to meet you and have a very nice hot and hot (sunny) afternoon!

I'm already feeling some of the "Possible Side Effects" :cry:
Thanks Tommi for the huge load of capsaicin I got today :lol:

Ok, guys! So is everything set?

My girlfriend (Elina) has already cooked some of her very tasty and spicy pies, so we're all set for the picnic tomorrow Ah, and, of course, the beers are already in the fridge

Let's meet up at the main dock.  We're going by train and taking the ferry (so I can drink some beers), so maybe we'll meet at the ferry itself.

I have Tommi's phone number, I think he has mine too (do you still have it, Tommi?) so if we have any planing mismatch we can call each other.

Tupakka, I'll bring that Neyde pod.  It's a very small one and I'm not sure if it's ripe yet, but you can have it to take the seeds or, at least, taste it.  I'll be bringing along some of the seeds I have to spare too, if someone is interested.

Tommi, I'm looking forward for some pain from your rocopicas! I might even spit out some seeds of those, so I can sow them as well :lol:

Looking forward to seeing you, dudes!

Tommi, great to hear that you most likely will participate too!

Unfortunately I don't have any ripe pods either... Maybe one small Pimenta-da-Neyde, but one never knows when it's really ripe

Now it seems that the weather forecast is improving Neither FMI nor FORECA are seeing any rain during the weekend!

So, I agree with the time and place.  Suomenlinna at the main dock at 2pm.

I hope Tommi can join us too and he has recovered (at least partly) from his foot.  I also twist my ankle once in a while and I agree that in the first few days one can hardly walk, but later it is at least possible to walk before fully recovering.  So, TOMMI! Let's go!

About the food/drinks, I guess everyone brings his/her own.  Of course we should share and pass our spiciest snacks around too

So far, it's just Tupakka, Lumi, myself (maybe my girlfriend) and maybe Tommi coming, right? Anyone else?

Looking forward to meeting you guys!

1st of July should be okay with me too I mean, if the weather improves, of course.  At least today, the forecast is showing an improvement on saturday (mostly sunny 20C), but we never know...

For me the 30th would be fine as well My only "requirement" is that the date is decided in advance :lol:

Nice! Both the 16th and the 23rd of June are good for me It will definitely be nice to meet some more chileheads from the Helsinki area

Hello!

Could anyone give me some information about this picnic meeting in English? I'd really like to participate too!

Hmmm... I'm not sure how wild it is.  What I know is that it is comercially grown in the state of Pará in the North of Brazil.

Mark, you can see some pictures of "Cumarí do Pará" here:
