I’m not sure if Fairfield is Richmond or henrico but it’s got huge windows and great seating.

Probably cheap sour mix that burns right thru your gut.

My wife wanted a bruxl burger after delivering our youngest. She gobbled it up and the fries too. Said it was the best cheeseburger of her entire life.

En su Boca is built around margaritas and tequila shots not food. Still far superior to casa del barco though. No idea how anyone goes there twice.

Hmmm...we made lasagna the other day and that was great. We had some extra noodles left and I saved them. The next day I put sliced deli turkey meat on one with some siracha and rolled it up pinwheel style. It was food.

I want to like Jalapenos so much but the food just isn't good. Margarita mix is so sweet it's like an instant headache and hangover

I think OP is using a different definition for "influencer" than you or I.

I think of an influencer as photoshop lifestyle and thinly veiled advertisements, whereas this post seems to be asking for someone who reports on Richmond area happenings and events (a "reporter" as the old heads like to say).

Ham Fatigue, I think I saw them at the Yerb

I went to a seafood restaurant in Chester a few weeks ago with the family, I had my heart set on a piece of salmon. I ended up with a burger... How the fuck does a seafood restaurant not have any salmon?

I can't remember the name of the place, but it started with an F. Flamingos? Flanagans? Something...

who cares about influencers…they’re generally mostly lame. they’ve definitely ruined a few of my hobbies/interests. like i don’t need someone a decade or more younger than me telling me they think they know more than i do about xyz and then doing it in this phony saccharine for social media way.

This is exactly how I feel about En Su Boca. I’ll go, I’ll get the food, and it will be okay, but it always lands beneath all the hype surrounding it.

Personally, I nominate the main branch! It’s got a great selection and the building is pretty. It’s too cold now but they have a nice little garden area around back to sit

OP can you post some pictures of the inside of the truck?

Not a RPL but my vote for nicest area library is Libbie Mill. Lots of spaces for reading and you can get a card (if you want to check out books) even if you’re a Richmond city resident like me.

No new info in this article, or the linked article :/ hope it happens!

Yes, Coco + Hazel was a huge disappointment to me too. Blue Cow isn't too far away and I thought it was tasty. No amazing presentation, but I rather have good food.

Here you go

Oh man we went to Sprezza for the first time this week and it was really bad and expensive, like the food had no flavor expensive, which was mind blowing considering how amazing the pop ups were. Then i looked at the google reviews and saw other people complaining about the lack of flavor in the food. Not sure what’s going on but it was crushing to say the least.

Nah. They've fully earned their 3 strikes from me. Most likely not going back.

About to get downvoted for this, but-

The most underwhelming meal I've had here was Perly's benny goodman with smoked salmon. I was so excited and really wanted to like it because I've never heard anything bad about them but everything was so bland.

Going to follow up on all the good feedback I received yesterday in regards to “shops for a teacher.” If you see some big nerd underdressed for the weather and a big smile on his face, say hey

Look at y'all whining. If anything political happens in Richmond, Goad is right there with his camera and disco moustache. He puts in the work

So does RVA Dirt

Can anyone recommend which Richmond public library is nicest? Looking to spend the day just reading

Have you tried their chorizo egg (tacos?) They’re so good

My vote for underwhelming meal was Southbound, but they shot themselves in the foot expectations-wise. I came in expecting a decent-ish dinner, until the appetizers blew me away. Everything was SO good and I got really excited for the rest of the meal. Then the entrees came and were... decent-ish, but nowhere near as good as the appetizers. Dessert was also underwhelming, especially for the price.
