Richmond restaurants and food shops are continuing to blow up your Twitter feed. We shared with you several of their tweets last month. Here are a few more:

@821Cafe, all new and shiny in their new space, also tempts me with mouth-watering food descriptions and tweets like this that make me plan a brunch date there soon:

cooking blueberry and cream cheese french toast and steak breakfast burritos [sic]…..oh yeah and 4 kinds of mimosas!

@Bistro27 was tweeting more last month than they are now.  I wonder who does their tweets, because everyone I’ve ever met who works there has been super-nice and down to Earth.

First Friday’s Artwalk is back and the weather’s great for it! Bistro 27 will be serving awesome food ’til… http://fb.me/w8OSMsj4

Sette, near Church Hill @settepizza reminds us about their super-affordable daily specials, including half-price wine and beer nights and engages their readers with questions.

@CestLeVin is a new wine shop in Shockoe Bottom with a fun conversational tone, offers for World Cup viewing, and their participation in Shockoe Wide Open.

RVA’s newest favorite nightspot, The Republic @therepublicrva is short and sweet with their tweets.

Tonight, free (always) Barrelhouse!!! Don’t miss Jimmy Z and the boys at 10pm!

With @BalliceauxRVA‘s new policy of charging a cover for music acts, perhaps twitter will be more instrumental in encouraging patrons to attend.

Our first Wine Dinner, July 27th, will be based on Caribbean Cuisine from a little island next to Balliceaux… http://fb.me/BJKqDvZK

Wine Beer Westpark is an independent shop in the West End and one of the first to utilize social media to their benefit, bringing 50+ folks to their store for a tasting and an early Richmond Foursquare swarm badge. Owner Matt Lake tweets @WBWestpark.
