This chicken salad still kicks a$$ ^ ^ ^

Read about another place called TAC Quick Thai restaurant at 3930 N. Sheridan Rd that serves a dish called hoy lai pad nam prik pao or fresh clams with chili paste, oyster sauce, sugar, crushed chilies, and a handful of fresh Thai basil. Sounds delicious, will have to go.
