Recent Channel 7 Coverage Sees Sydney Thai Restaurant Demand Rise, Holy Basil’s Christmas Spots Filling Fast

Sydney, Australia (PRWEB) December 18, 2014

Holy Basil, one of Sydney’s top Thai restaurants is feeling the positive effects from a glowing review they received from Felicity Urquhart, the hostess of Sydney Weekender, a lifestyle show aired on Channel 7. Because of the media coverage, the suburban eatery’s Christmas bookings are filling up so fast they can hardly keep up with the reservation requests.

“We are now offering Christmas party functions at both of our Sydney branches,” says Chef Tony Inthavong, co-owner of Holy Basil. “While we already have a number of bookings, but still have some spots left so we invite everyone to consider us for their holiday get-together.”

According to an article published on the Good Food website, Australian diets have undergone significant changes with more and more people eating Chinese or Thai for dinner. Australians simply eat more Asian food compared to around 15 years ago which is backed by a report made by the University of Sydney saying there are more than 3,000 Thai restaurants in Australia, one-quarter of which can be found in Sydney alone.

With a passion to provide high quality, authentic Thai food, Holy Basil was opened. It’s a family owned and operated Thai and Laos restaurant in Sydney and showcases the cuisine of both cultures using the freshest ingredients, herbs and spices which are distinctive of the regions. What’s more, there is both a casual dining eatery and a fine dining section under the same roof.

With Holy Basil’s reputation growing, the Sydney Weekender, a lifestyle show that airs weekly on the Seven Network became aware of the restaurant and reviewed them. The popular show, which investigates the best places to stay, eat and play to help its viewers make the most out of their weekends, recently featured the Thai and Laos restaurant on a recent episode.

The Sydney Weekender’s website mentions that “Sydney is flooded with great Thai restaurants but now there’s a new kid on the block dishing up the classics and Lao food… they find the balance between sweet, sour and spicy to bring you uniquely Thai & Laos cuisines.”

Hostess Felicity Urquhart said “…the flavours are unique and exciting and the dishes are sure to uplift your spirit.”

She specifically preferred the papaya salad, seared ox tongue, deep fried snapper topped with Asian salad, and the chilli roast pork belly in basil and garlic sauce. She was surprised to learn that Holy Basil makes and serves its own gelato filled with uniquely Asian flavours.

Natural Remedies On The Rise

Columbia, MD (PRWEB) February 3, 2006

In this town close to the famed NIH (National Institutes of Health), where all research for traditional medications and clinical trials for new medications begins, the tide is beginning to turn in favor of natural and herbal remedies.

Disclosures have made in the past year of dangerous side effects of medications previously thought to be safe, such as Vioxx, Celebrex and Bextra (pain medications), Accutane (acne medication), Prempro (Hormone Replacement Therapy – for menopause symptoms) and now Ortho-Evra (birth control patch). The Federal Drug Administration, or FDA, publishes information on recalled prescription medications or new medication warnings on their website. These revelations have led to increased consumer awareness about the safety of traditional prescription medications and less willingness by the public to take them. As a result, 5 out of 10 Americans are seeking out natural remedies to cure or manage their illnesses.

When Christine Ellstein started taking HRT, she felt immediate relief from her debilitating symptoms. “I had hot flashes like you wouldn’t believe,” she said. “I was irritable all the time – you can’t imagine how miserable I felt. And this was every day.” She recalls finding out from her doctor that, because of the medical risks of HRT, she should stop taking the drug. “I was absolutely devastated,” she says. “I couldn’t imagine going a whole day with those kinds of symptoms, let alone a week or month.” That’s when she began doing research on herbal remedies. She settled on a natural remedy containing a soy product that she found at http://www.resolts.com, and hasn’t looked back since. “I was so skeptical at first,” she says, “but the product really worked. I wouldn’t go back to prescription medication for anything.”

Christine’s is but one of thousands of people that have tried natural remedies with good results. Some people take herbal remedies not because of a medication warning, but because they say they just don’t trust that anyone knows what the long term effects of prescription medications will be.

If you are considering taking an herbal remedy for a medical condition:

1. Do your homework. Look for statistics and testimonials about the natural remedy on the Internet or in the Library. Ask your friends or someone you trust for their opinion.

2. Consult your doctor. Let him or her know your concerns about traditional medications and that you are considering an herbal remedy. Be aware that some doctors will not support you and be prepared to seek a second opinion if need be.

3. Once you decide on a natural remedy, pay attention to your body. If you don’t feel well when you take one, stop immediately and consult your doctor.
