I've seen them mostly as pickles, but I remember a braised dish with meat, veg and pearl onions. Any recipes, star chefs?

Yes, braised onions and sauteed mushrooms with beef bourguignon. Here's a link I found:

I've made it from Julia's cookbook before and it is delicious.

Also, have used them in Coq au Vin recipe which might be a bit easier (ingredients wise) here in Thailand:

Oops...best reread your recipe! Mind, that's probably what put the pearls idea before my snout.

This isn't braising, but try stuffing a few in a chicken before roasting, then scatter a few more amongst the potatoes.

yeah...I first learned to make beef bourguinon from Julia Child's The Art of French Cooking (a classic) many years ago...she uses a complicated recipie with many steps but I followed it closely so if pearl onions were included them must've used them...
