We gathered at Cooking Papa in pursuit of the best example of the dish of the month, sticky rice-stuffed chicken. It wasn't only the chicken that was stuffed: somehow 7 'hounds finished 9 courses (10 if you count both ways of the duck two ways). Was it worth it? Check out the discussion on Chowhound: Chowdown at Cooking Papa.
