Chongqing Jigong Bao (重庆鸡公煲) — Chongqing Chicken Pot

Despite coming in at number two on my personal list, this one is what inspired me to make this entire list in the first place. Unassuming and scattered all over the city, these little shops are a treat. Every time I bring friends to one who’ve never had it, they instantly fall in love. It’s a simple concept; chicken is cooked with onions, celery, garlic, and chili peppers and placed on a burner on your table to continue cooking as you eat. The onions and celery soften to the point of melting in your mouth, and when you’ve finished, you can add soup to the remaining sauce, order some more raw ingredients, and have a hot pot second course. A can’t miss.
