Hello Mofos!

As it turns out, today is Zero Discrimination Day! It is a call to action to embrace everyone - people of different race, the different genders, the LGBT, to raise awareness about AIDS, different sexes, you name it. This movement was an effort by the UNAIDS.

Find out more about this movement at #ZeroDiscrimination and make this world a better place by participating in it! Imagine a world where Zero Discrimination will not just be happening on 1st March, but everyday! How beautiful that would be =)

In the mean time, enjoy this beautiful performance!

Well! Guess what! We are not the only ones known as “Chili” around. The known girlband group TLC has their very own Chilli as well! Her nickname Chilli was what the C stands for in TLC! 

Wait, do any of you still remember TLC?

Yep! These people! And most recently, Bastille did a cover of this song and The XX’s Angels, naming his cover “No Angels”. It was great! Some of you might have even hear it before:

Back to Ms Chilli, she is now an entrepreneur,  started her own handbag business in the past Bags by Chilli, and she’s into fitness now too! Damn! Follow Ms Chilli, if you’re interested to find out more ;)

With MOFO Kitchen opening next month (20 March to be exact) and MOFO CHILI having a makeover, we are revamping to another level! How do you like our new look?

Feel the love in the air! To those of you with dates or with friends, or love yourself more than anyone else in the world, happy valentine’s day to you! Even if you love yourself most, hey who can blame you! After all, love makes the world go round, right? That’s why there’s Valentine’s Day..? 

Nope! Not at all! In fact, St Valentine’s Day is a day to commemorate martyrdom. Little is known about St Valentine’s, however, there were three known Valentines (or Valentinus), and all of them were martyrs. One legend has it that a Saint Valentine was continuing to marry young lads even though it was outlawed for them to get married then, as young lads were better soldiers without wives or children. Of course, his lovely deeds were known soon enough, and *insert sword sound effect*, he was ordered to be dead.

Fast forward to the more recent history, in 1929, a massacre of 7 victims happened when two gangs had a shoot-out; it was a fight for the control of territories. This will go down in history as one of the main events that led to the fall of the big-time gangster Al Capone - Also known as, Scarface. Yep! The gangster whom inspired the story of the movie Scarface, also the classy gangster that made the fedora hat and stripy suits become a thing. Come on, this gangster really knows a thing or two about style! Even his gang is named the Chicago Outfit (Ok, fine, he has nothing to do with the naming of it, but still!)!

So! Mofos, what makes the love is love. Not the day, and not due to history created by other people in the past. As we can see, the history on this very day, isn’t so pretty! So here’s to more chocolates, and love! And also, guess what we found? Apparently the spiciest chocolate to be found right now! It’s even aptly named “Instant Regret”. So try a different kind of Valentine’s Day now! ;)

get it Here.

Hello Mofos!

Happy Chinese New Year 2016 from this cheeky monkey! And greetings from us in Bali! May this year be filled with playfulness and pranks, and as this monkey has shown the way, get your cheeky on! ;)

We thought it's about time that we share a wonderful piece of news with you especially because without your constant support, ‪#‎MOFOCHILI‬ would not be where we are today! So, here goes..

In the past few months, we have been busy setting up our restaurant and bar in the beautiful island we are all familiar with (some of us a bit too much), ‪#‎Bali‬, ‪#‎Indonesia‬!

‪#‎MOFOKITCHEN‬ is being set up as we speak and it will be our honour to have you attend our grand opening on 22 March 2016.

The 1st day of the month and it’s Mofo Monday! What a perfect way to start the month! =D 

If like us, you are health conscious, this article that we just stumbled upon will be as much a delight to you as it is for us!

27 January marks the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi concentration -or rather, death - camp. The day the innocent prisoners were finally released, though their lives were forever changed. Many of the survivors have lost their family members, friends, belongings; some may even be driven to the edge of insanity.

Let us never forget what history has taught us. Discrimination, intolerance and violence never leads to any good. It starts from our thoughts, words and actions. May the horrors of the genocide and world wars never be repeated ever again! Our thought goes to the survivors, families of survivors or the lost, and families of the oppressed soldiers.

Hello again!

By now, you might have noticed that we are starting our new segment of #MofoMonday. We endeavour to update you on our activities as much as we can, or just brightening up you Mondays with random facts/finds/thoughts of the day, be them chili related or not! Sometimes, we may even features our very own co-owners and their lives, or suggestions you have given to us. So do not hesitate to contact us with any suggestions you have!

For now, we’ll leave you with the perfect song to teach your kids how to dance! WARNING: The tune will awaken them earworms that have been sleeping in your ears! ;)

So, the third Monday of January every year has the whole world celebrating the life of true hero who has fought for civil and political rights equality amongst races and religion.

Amongst other speech and quotes, Dr King is most notably known for his 17-minutes long speech entitled “I have a Dream”, hailed as a masterpiece of rhetoric, which has changed history and made USA the land of free that it is today.

He has held the government accountable for their promise of "we hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal”, just as Singapore has pledged “ourselves as one united people, regardless of race, language or religion”.

Let us never forget the fights the heroes of our past have fought for us, and fight on to keep our nations and people free!

To those of us who love Chili as much as us at MOFO CHILI do, Spicy Addict may not be a stranger anymore. We have been following these chili fans religiously as they open our horizon to hot stuff around the world! 

Who knows! Maybe one day we may be featured on their Instagram account too! ;)

Pppppssttt, did you know? They now have a blog for spicy recipes too! Have fun trying some of their mouth-burning concoctions! 

Yes! You read that right! Did you know that for many of us in the more Northern hemisphere of our lovely planet Earth, Christmas did not fall last month? Christmas is happening TO-DAY, yes the 7 of January! 

This is because some countries, such as Russia, where most hold the beliefs of Orthodox Christian, still use the Julian calendar, which was created under the reign of Julius Caesar in 45 BC. This is unlike the majority of countries which have switched to the Gregorian calendar, originally proposed by Pope Gregory in 1582. Thus, this discrepancy in the dates, where in Julian calendar, December 25 falls on Gregorian’s 7 January. 13 days difference, but technically it’s still December 25th that is being celebrated - Christmas day. 

So hey! If you need any excuse to celebrate the day, what more perfect excuse, and what better way to celebrate the spirit of giving than to give your loved ones a bottle of our very own Final Destination, Dodge the Bullet, or MOFO Gunpowder? ;)

Here’s to another celebration of Christmas!
