Nong's Khao Man Gai

"The original carts are gone, but Nong's Khao Man Gai’s restaurant spaces on Southeast Ankeny and Southwest 13th are still kicking, serving chef Nong Poonsukwattana’s signature dish: a deceptively simple take on Hainanese chicken. Ask five acolytes their favorite part of the dish and each will offer a different answer: the soul-satisfying broth, the truly perfect rice, Nong's ginger-heavy sauce, or the chicken itself, skins or no. Poonsukwattana’s story is one of dogged perseverance; that has not changed."

"2023 Nong's Khao Man Gai Thai food is known for their Khao Man Gai with is streamed chicken over rice with some evidently yummy sauce, etc. 2024 I saw this place recommended again. The Creator said they didn't have a favorite dish because it's all so good."

"From a food cart, an obsession is born. Nong Poonsukwattana started out making one thing, and making sure it was perfect, and in the process she turned a Thai comfort food staple into Portland's comfort food staple. Since then, her famous khao man gai has spawned two permanent restaurants, a bottled sauce, and deep, visceral craving among everyone who tries it."
