"Downtown LA kiosk Holy Basil is serving some of the best Thai street food in the city. This Historic Core gem is somewhat of a revelation for Thai food fans, serving everything from cold hand-pressed tofu, to gorgeous tom yum, green curry, and fried noodles. Check out the Thursday to Saturday seafood specials. The restaurant’s also recently expanded to a popular standalone space in Atwater Village, for anyone coming from Northeast LA and environs, and will soon open in Santa Monica." - Matthew Kang
