Foster City and surrounding area, locate the restaurant called Sweet Basil

It's no wonder this Thai fave (and Thai Idea, its vegetarian baby sis a few doors down) is forever-packed. Superb ingredients whipped up into irresistible plates of sumptuousness keep folks coming back every time. Chillin' in a shopping center in Foster City, Sweet Basil's casual vibe and chic décor is marked by modern light fixtures, multi-hued wood floors, and black-lacquered chairs. Atop bamboo tabletops, feast on such delectable offerings as red coconut curry overflowing with juicy prawns, pumpkin, carrots, bamboo shoots, and basil; or pad see-ew, wide stir-fried noodles tossed with cabbage, broccoli, egg, and tender slices of beef. The sweet basil chicken speckled with chilies, onions, and crunchy bell peppers is a classic that never fails to sate.
