Yep, best way to gauge the heat of the pan.

Well we don't have the variety, but four chippies, two Indian restaurants,  
three Chinese, and two pizza/kebab houses; plus the Subway and three other  
sandwich shops and four independent butchers. Plus the caff, a tea shop  
and a cross between a restaurant and a tea room; the cake shop and the  
sweet shop. Oh I'm not counting pub food that would be another  
three/fourish depending on who you count and how far out you go. Come the  
renovations in town they're expecting coffee shops and more tea shops.
