If you could only have one last meal at a Oriental restaurant (Chinese, Thai, etc), what would yours be?
Mine would be Volcano Chicken at Chiang Mai Cafe in Brookfield WI. It is a Thai restaurant. I am not sure if Volcano Chicken is a traditional Thai dish, but its my fav.
It is made with crispy chicken chunks, carrots, bok choy, onions and green peppers.
It is brought to the table on a iron plate (with a bigger wooden plate underneath). The waitress pours some liquor on it and lights it. After it flames for a minute or 2, she pours a thick dark sauce over the flames which puts the fire out, but when it hits the super hot iron plate a huge stream of smoke rises from the dish (and everyone in the room oohs and ahhs).
It tastes like it was cooked on a smokey grill. I am not sure what the sauce is, but its tangy sweet, yet hot (spicy) at the same time.
Look forward to hearing other dishes, esp from more "traditional" Chinese/Thai cities like New York, San Fransisco etc.
