I have a Thai sister-in-law, and I've been to Thailand, so I'm embarrassed to admit I've never heard of this (of course I got sick in Thailand and couldn't stand to even look at the food, so that might have something to do with it). I have to think there's some place in California where you can get holy basil. Amazingly enough, near me the Asian markets don't have galangal, but the Whole Foods does.
