The Best Places to Eat and Drink in Santa Cruz, California | Eater SF
"If eating delicious Thai food and drinking natural wine amongst shelves of used and rare books sounds like an exquisite night out, Bad Animal might be calling your name. Currently, the kitchen is a residency program for chefs, and as of 2022, chef Lalita Kaewsawang of Hanloh Thai is steering the menu. Expect dishes such as hoi ob, or steamed Manila clams with lemongrass, Thai basil, and makrut lime leaves in broth, or gai tod hat yai, double-fried boneless chicken thighs marinated in coriander and fish sauce." - Paolo Bicchieri
