...is the chicken and caramel sauce in a clay pot at Aux Delices. Who knew you could eat freaking caramel sauce for dinner?! It's the ga kho, with chunks of sauteed chicken bathed in a thin, savory caramel broth. With a glass of Viognier, nothing soothes the week night soul better.
Ah - I think we made this or something similar in the Asian ccoking class at tante marie's.

I've always loved the chicken clay pot at Slanted Door, which is the same dish.
I'll have to try the version at Aux Delices.

The catfish version is good too. Also, order the Cha Ca Hanoi, it's sole with fresh chopped dill and green onions and caramelized onions. Amazingly it is every bit as good as the original. Really great dish!
