| - i recently went on thai food kick around town... and to make the comparison fair decided to have basil chicken in several places... Thara Thai, Nitaya Thai and Basil Thai in campustown. the second one (Nitaya Thai) bests the other two on location, downtown Champaign. it's within walking distance of good coffee, music shows, beer, etc. that being said, the basil chicken is alright, not as good as Thara Thai's but better than Basil Thai's (if you can even call their dish "chicken"). Nitaya's chicken is a bit on the dry side, the rice portion was generous, but cold even though i arrived on time (i had take-out). if you are dining in, the booths are nice, but don't expect anything posh.
