Thai flavor, Anytown soul.
Golden Basil Street Kitchen is led by Chef Malee Suriya, whose bold, scratch-made Thai cooking has become an Anytown favorite. Her food earned a 2019 National Culinary Award semifinalist nod for Best Chef: Great Lakes and City Eats' Chef of the Year in 2018.
The kitchen leans into fresh herbs, house-made sauces and real spice — with a menu that's largely gluten-free friendly, from grilled lemongrass chicken to candied beef and creamy Tom Yum.
Chef Malee's Thai products — including her tempura batter mix and hot chili spice — now reach kitchens across the region through 250+ Heartland Market stores.
Three things we never skip.
Scratch-Made
Sauces, marinades and that lemongrass secret — made in house, every day. No shortcuts.
Gluten-Free Friendly
A big chunk of the menu is gluten-free, clearly tagged, so more people can dig in.
Real Heat
Thai spice done right — from a gentle warmth to Chef Malee's signature chili blend.
In good company.
