A donut shop inspired by a Philadelphia staple is heading to Carytown, a seafood restaurant that’s been a Richmond staple is closing down, and we have each and every menu for the upcoming Restaurant Week. All this, plus more in our weekly recap of the city’s food news.
We’ve got some menus from the 40 restaurants participating in this spring’s Restaurant Week ready for your perusal, a tea cafe in the Fan closes its doors this weekend, Parkside Cafe ends its hiatus and opens with a new chef, and more of your weekly helping of food news.
We got word this week about whether Baja Bean was going to stay in the Fan, Jake Crocker comes even closer to monopolizing Main and Stafford, and just down the road, Julep’s owner is putting the finishing touches on new restaurant, Mint.
This past year we have seen a deluge of new restaurants open in the Richmond metro area. As Richmond’s Restaurant Week approaches, and we have to decide where to spend valuable time and resources, the sheer number of options can seem overwhelming. But fear not! Here are five recommendations to get you started.
