THAI FOOD UNMATCHED
Thai Basil offers a large menu of authentic, delicious Thai food in downtown Ithaca.
By Henry Stark
The first thing that strikes me about Thai Basil is the contrast between the small size of its frontage on State Street and the large size of its menu. Located directly across the street from The State Theatre, it’s tucked between several other retail establishments and, if you didn’t know it was there, could easily be walked right by. The restaurant itself is long and narrow and has room for less than four dozen diners. This works out well for them as about 70% of their business is takeout.
The menu, on the other hand, is large… both its size and the extensive number of offerings. There are eight amply illustrated cardboard pages connected by a spiral closing. And these pages describe myriad Thai offerings with major sections for photographs — Recommended Starters, Recommended Entrées, Appetizers (10), Vegetarian Appetizers (8), Fried Rice and Fried Noodles Dishes (12), Stir Fried Entrées (6), Thai Curries, (6), Chef’s Creations (9), Whole Red Snapper, (4), and Duck Specials (6) as well as soups, salads, beverages, beers, wines, and two and three item combinations.
The large number of offerings creates a challenge for a diner to choose a meal as well as for a reviewer to select from so many items.
Here’s a helpful hint to start: There are small symbols of red peppers next to some items. One pepper is “Mild,” two means “Medium” and three means “Hot.” Personally, the mild was just over the line for my taste so in choosing future meals I will only opt for items with no red pepper symbols. Even so, the amount of heat used has been Americanized as the levels I remember from my visits to Thailand were often considerably higher.
In the greater Ithaca area we definitely don’t have a dearth of delicious duck dishes — Thai Basil with their half-dozen duck offerings ($19.95) is an excellent example. A popular choice is Thai Basil Duck which I ordered during a recent visit and which I thoroughly enjoyed. The duck was roasted, boneless, and then deep fried to get it crispy, cut into small pieces, and complemented with beautifully cooked onions, bell peppers, mushrooms and basil leaves and then kicked up enough to challenge my pain/pleasure threshold with chilis. (It does have a single red pepper icon.)
Another visit, another duck. This time Honey Duck. It doesn’t have any pepper icons and was mild with beautifully cooked al dente carrots, peas and cashews in a homemade honey sauce. I enjoyed it.
I love soft shell crabs. The entrée I ordered here, Soft Shell Crab Pad Phong Karee, is different from western offerings. Two crabs were cut into medium size pieces which were virtually indistinguishable in a mix of onions, scallions, bell peppers and celery, all blended together in a thick Karee. (Karee is a yellow curry paste unique to Thailand.)
One of the featured sections on their large menu is called Combination Sets. Two Bites ($16) offers a choice of Pad Thai, Pad See Aew, Drunken Noodle, Green Curry or Red Curry, served with Thai Iced Tea. I ordered Drunken Noodle for my entrée. Drunken noodles are large, flat, rice noodles and come with a slightly spicy soy sauce and some more of those beautifully cooked veggies. The veggies I could identify were baby corn cobs, broccoli, carrots, green beans, onions, red pepper and cabbage. The chef knows how to offer fresh vegetables al dente without under or overcooking them. Incidentally, red curry is milder than green.
Thai Iced Tea is the second bite. It’s a Ceylon tea served in a large glass filled with ice cubes and a copious amount of milk and sugar — quite sweet, and quite good!
If you order Three Bites ($21) you also get a Thai Spring Roll (two glass noodles filled with shredded vegetables) appetizer.
Here’s a heads up for you: The four Whole Red Snapper entrées ($23.95) are just that — whole, meaning you’re going to be greeted with the head and tail and you’ll have to filet it yourself at the table. I think it’s worth the effort.
I don’t know how many diners enjoy wine with Thai food, however if you’re one of them…you’ll have a problem here. There are only a total of seven on offer ($7/$8-$28/$32). I ordered one of the three reds, Cabernet Sauvignon and they were “out.” You’ll have a better chance with one of the 12 beers, ($3.50$4.75) all in bottles.
I don’t usually compare restaurants, however I don’t think there’s another restaurant in town that serves better authentic Thai food.

Tidbits:
-Thai food is not served with a knife. If you want one, ask. -Thai chefs often feel it’s better to serve the meals when they’re ready and hot rather than wait to accumulate all the meals for a table before releasing them all at once from the kitchen. That’s the case here. Arts & Entertainment
Change of pace

Melting Point #2 by Nicholas Gecan (Photo: Provided)
There’s something refreshingly different at the State of the Art Gallery this month. The main gallery features “The 2022 Invitational Exhibit” — a rare chance to see nine non-member artists at the cooperative — while the back room “Salon” features “Glass Acts” by veteran installation artist Connie Zehr. (Both shows run concurrently, March 3-27.)
Selina Karim, “new to the community,” is showing a large, intricately detailed and sensitively colored watercolor “Forest Glow,” which portrays a forest floor leafscape. Less lucid or memorable, three smaller prints from her “Blockprinting Musing” series are exercises in layered folk patterning as abstract art.
Chris Knickerbocker and Teresa Yatsko recollect traditions of surrealism and folk art in their inventive, playful assemblage sculptures. Knickerbocker, the brasher and more polemical of the two, contributes work incorporating found photography and text with junk shop odds and ends. Yatsko, who was included in last December’s invitational show, is showing several of her fanciful but often elegiac altered book assemblages. Works like “Cellist” and “Sailboat” are allegorical portraits combining small, central cutout figures with printed languages and findings from the forest.
Barbara Behrmann contributes a series of variously sized quilts featuring abstract geometric designs and colorful, expressionistic dyeing. The field of “textile art” can be a perilous one, with artists — often women seeking to elevate traditionally feminine craft work — mimicking modern painting in ways not always flattering. Most successful here is “Take a Walk on the Mild Side,” based on a photograph taken in Los Angeles. Jagged and daring in color, the landscape-format piece speaks the language of abstract art without translation.
Also included are some more established and familiar local artists.
Riding on the momentum of last year’s memoir cum art project “Book Marks,” as well as a recent show of magazine collages at Corners Gallery, Barbara Page contributes small square panel paintings from her “Arrivals and Departures” series. Using acrylic and mixed media, these imagined travelogues demonstrate Page’s varied painterly lexicon and love of pastiche.
“Hanalei Bay: High Tide” is the most coloristically ambitious of several Page paintings here bearing witness, in their textural abstraction, to the artist’s apprenticeship several years back at Golden Paint in New Berlin, New York. Local abstractionist Nicholas Gecan works in a similar vein — less successfully in my view. Cases in point here are “Melting Point #2” (a diptych) and “Keepers of the Sky,” both acrylic on canvas. Their schematic color might be workable if the tactile feeling of their paint application were more sensitive. Gecan claims a lofty ecological philosophy behind his paintings. One wants to be able to indulge his earnestness.
Retired Cornell art professor Gregory Page (no relation to Barbara) and Pamela Drix, formerly of Ithaca College, have long been associated with the Ink Shop Printmaking Center — the opposite pole of Downtown Ithaca’s art scene. Both contribute characteristically stately, introspective works. Page’s lithographs and artist’s books memorialize botanical specimens in richly textured abstract fields while Drix’s intensely hued “Composite Elemental” series combines her signature woodcut technique with faceted geometric forms.
Carla Stetson, recently retired from IC, contributes mostly grisaille painting-drawings portraying animalian and ecological themes in a playfully illustrational style. The most engaging of these is “Mesmerized,” which combines ink, gouache, graphite, and netting on an irregularly cut sheet of paper attached directly to the wall. Two crocodiles approach each other atop elaborately coiled rugs — intricate patterning enlivening the arch subject matter.
All in all, “Invitational” is a welcome offering for any of us concerned with what ambitious local artists are doing.
As well as providing a base for artists of mainly local interest, the SOAG has also hosted members with broader reputations or aspirations who happen to make their homes in the area.
An installation artist with over five decades of experience, Connie Zehr has long been known for her work with piled sand and various ornaments. Inspired by the tradition of Corning, New York, she has more lately incorporated flame-worked glass into her site responsive sculpture. “Glass Acts” features a roped-off area with an installation of five floor-bound works on disk-shaped platforms. Sand — white, blue, red and earthy yellow — joins glass vessels partially filled with water as well as a variety of little rods, balls, and faceted forms. The effect is serene, elegant and otherworldly.
The show also incorporates several digital photographs, printed on metal, further abstracting and dramatizing Zehr’s sculpture, as well as a video documenting the installation.
Zehr has made use of more expansive gallery spaces in her installations. She feels constricted at the SOAG; perhaps this is by necessity but it would have been rewarding to see her pieces fill the main room. As it is, it’s hard to get a sense of what her work — so different from what is usually shown here — is entirely about.
State of the Art Gallery
SoAG is located at 120 W State St and is open ThursdaySunday from noon-5 p.m.
three ball that ballooned the lead to 20. Taylor said he and Jalen studied film of Stillwater and developed a sense of how their opponent will defend the team’s offense.
“We knew after the Pierson game they were going to come out in a box and one us,” Taylor said. “So in the practices leading up, we did primarily only shooting drills so that once Jalen got past the first guy he just gives it in the corners to me, Austin or Derek and we can just light them up.”
Newfield led by as much as 22 points in the period as the team entered the fourth quarter up 57-42. The offensive barrage continued thereafter with the Trojans chalking up 30 more points in the final eight minutes of the game and eventually coming out on top by 25.
“The guys were very confident. They had fire in their eyes,” Nembhard said of the squad’s performance. “They really wanted it and it showed.”
Hardison, who eclipsed the 1,000-point mark at the varsity level in the semifinals the day before, led Newfield’s dominant offensive performance with 27 points in the championship contest. He also recorded six assists, four rebounds, two steals, and a blocked shot. Nembhard said he is impressed with the strides Hardison has made towards his overall game and is eager to see how much more he will improve come his senior year.
“I’ve watched him since sixth grade, and I knew back then — I would always say he was going to be a great player,” Nembhard said. “His game IQ — I mean, he’s a scorer; he’s a floor general; he’s just a phenomenal, phenomenal basketball player. He’s stepped it up even more defensively this year. He’s a lockdown defender. He always wants to guard the best player on the opponent’s team.”
Jenney also stepped up offensively, scoring 19 points in addition to his seven rebounds, which came as no surprise to Nembhard and his teammates.
“I knew he had it in him all year,” Nembhard said. “I kind of had a talk with Austin and told him, ‘You need to be more aggressive offensively,’ because he can score the basketball. He can really shoot; he can get to the basket.”
“We call Austin the ‘practice player’ because every practice it doesn’t matter if he’s isoing Jalen or anybody; he’s dropping like 20 points during practices and scrimmages,” Taylor said. “But in games he’s always timid and shy. He finally played like he was able to.”
Jenney said he knew from the get-go that he was going to have a good night offensively.
“Once I hit that first three in the first possession of the game I got my confidence going, and that’s what I’ve been looking for all year on my shot,” he said. “So that really helped me shoot the ball well that game.”
Taylor tallied 17 points (including five three pointers), six assists, and a block. After suffering a high ankle sprain early in the season, Taylor worked his way back to becoming the team’s ignitor, according to Nembhard .
“He’s the heart of the team - he hustles; he’s diving for loose balls,” he said. “We really rely on him not only for his offense, but for his defense as well. He brings the energy to our basketball team, and he makes us go.”

I’ve been watching Ryan Reynolds in movies for decades now, going back to the Nixon comedy “Dick” (1999), but for years the guy was this hunk of Hollywood protoplasm. He’d be in a movie and it’s like I forgot what he looked like until the next movie, and so on. I just couldn’t get a bead on the guy. Then in 2016’s “Deadpool”, Reynolds found his voice – extreme sarcasm, deep pop references and quips covering a certain male self-loathing — now I know who the guy is. The trick now is to keep making good Ryan Reynolds movies like last year’s “Free Guy” and fewer movies like the thin “Hitman’s Bodyguard” series.
Number one on the Netflix charts this week is “The Adam Project” (NetflixSkydance-21 Laps, 2022, 106 min.), the second straight collaboration between Reynolds and director Shawn Levy, following “Free Guy.” (Levy and Reynolds will collaborate again on the just-announced “Deadpool 3.”)
There are four credited writers here, and I hope that when they cracked the story that they lit up cigars. “The Adam Project” is one of those movies with such a diabolically clever premise that you honestly wonder why no one’s ever done it before. It’s all about Ryan as this futuristic pilot who crash-lands in 2022 and encounters his 12-year-old self, a smartass wimpy kid with asthma named Adam (Walker Scobell). The elder Adam has been wounded and his plane has sustained damages, and he needs to lay low for a few days before he can continue his mission to find out what happened to his wife (Zoe Saldana).
Shawn Levy has a soft spot in my heart; when my mom passed away in 2011, Levy’s movie “Real Steel” was the only movie that really interested me; I was just in the right spot for a movie about robot fight clubs. Levy and Reynolds really pulled off something clever with “Free Guy,” a four-quadrant summer blockbuster that was actually clever and well-thought out, and Reynolds surrounded himself with a young, talented, versatile ensemble. Not to mention the fact that I am pathetically vulnerable to any story involving time travel.
Levy seems to have mastered the knack of making high-concept movies that work beyond the concept. We’ve seen a lot of time-travel movies and a lot of sci-fi action movies, but “The Adam Project” pulls off its own dense, somewhat bugnuts plot with a lot of enthusiastic performances that I won’t spoil, and just plain cool ideas. Both Adams have their own daddy and mommy issues to be worked on, and Reynolds definitely has some of that snarky self-loathing going on here. He can deliver a line like, “Isn’t he cute? Don’t you just want to dip his head below the water and wait for the bubbles to stop?” and not come off as nasty.
There’s a real “Guardians of the Galaxy” vibe going on here, especially with the music; the trippy action scenes are scored to needle drops like the Spencer Davis Group’s “Gimme Some Lovin’” and Boston’s “Foreplay/Long Time.” And there must be something in the water, because Led Zeppelin are not known for licensing their songs for movies. Every once in a while, you hear some Zep in “Almost Famous” (2000) and “Dogtown and ZBoys” (2002), but just last month we heard “Ramble On” in “Uncharted” and now Levy scores a massive action set piece to the rollicking “Good Times Bad Times.”
Time travel, robots and Reynolds. Enjoy!

Winning and More Winning
A whole lot of congratulations to go around this week…
By Steve Lawrence
First, to no one’s surprise, Cornell wrestler Yanni Diakomihalis won his third NCAA title with an 11-5 decision over Nebraska’s Ridge Lovett. I say “to no one’s surprise” because the victory was Yanni’s 75th consecutive, and ran his career record to 94-1.
I wrote a couple of weeks ago that it seems like Diakomihalis has been around forever, and given this is his third title, he can come back next season to try to match Kyle Dake’s legendary four titles. (Dake’s run will live forever in NCAA wrestling lore, as his titles came in four different weight classes.) Yanni missed a season to the COVID pandemic, but prior to that he won as a freshman with a 37-1 record, and as stated, that was the last time he lost. He was 29-0 as a sophomore, and 28-0 this year. He has been on the radar for local wrestling fans for even longer, as he won four NYS high school championships prior to coming to Cornell.
All in all, it was a great “comeback” year for the Big Red. After losing the Ivy League title they had held for 17 years and saying farewell to longtime coach Rob Koll, Cornell elevated assistant coach Mike Grey to the head coaching position and reclaimed the Ivy League and Eastern Intercollegiate Wrestling Association crowns. The Big Red finished an impressive seventh at the NCAAs, with Vito Arajau and Jonathan Loew joining Diakomihalis as All Americans.
Over at Ithaca College, three more athletes stepped atop the podium at the NCAA, with Ava Lowell becoming the women’s swimming and diving team’s fifth individual national champion with her victory on the three-meter board, Megan Matheny — living up to her billing as the #1 seed — winning her second national title in the pole vault and Jack Wadsworth winning the title and setting a national record in the 100 backstroke. Megan hails from Lansing, and her teammates Ariyanha Bernard, Logan Bruce and Tia Jones — who also competed at the national championships — all competed in Section IV as high school athletes.
Wadsworth’s coach, Mike Blakely-Armitage, told me, “Jack has been amazing to coach this season, he is the perfect definition of controlled chaos and harnessing it into athletic effort. He gets locked in and is able to get to the next level that many athletes will never get to nor understand. His dedication to accomplishing his goals is something quite special and I’ve really appreciated being part of his journey this season,”
Congrats to the Finger Lakes Central Outlaws hockey team, who won the Tier III NYS Championship 12u PeeWee level this past weekend. For the second year in a row! The team is made up of a group of kids from Ithaca, Lansing, Elmira and Cortland, and they were the only team in their age group to go undefeated. They beat a team from the Long Island/New York City area to win. The Outlaws are coached by Russ Johnson, James Sheehan and Jeremy Downs.
When I learned that the Newfield boy’s basketball team had won the state title, I thought back over the years and recalled how that community has embraced its basketball program. The Trojans made numerous trips to the Final Four, and it is just a classy program by any measure.
I have interviewed many of the coaches over the years, I have seen dozens of players come and go, but there has always been one constant, and that is Ricky Stewart. Ricky has been an assistant coach, advocate, mentor and all-around father figure to so many players for so many years, and one of the nicest men I have ever met. Ricky and his wife, Jean, raised a houseful of kids. Some were biological children, some were not, and the Stewarts created a safe space for everyone. I recall looking at team photos year after year, and hoping that team — and that community — knew how lucky they are to have Ricky in their midst, and when Jean passed on in December, I knew the community would be there to support their friend. I recall thinking then how cool it would be if Newfield finally won the state title. Congrats, Trojans, and I’m glad you got an assist from above.
