Bio

I'm 51. Do most of the cooking at home. We eat out 2 or 3 times a week. Like to try different places as much as possible. That way I can learn new things to try at home. I am usually out on Tues. and Wed. nights and this is great as most places are not too busy then.

Kabuto Japanese House of Steak	Richmond, VA
Checking in again. kabuto still rocks as a fun place for a group to go. Always ask for the best chef as he will give the best show. Go early and spend time at the sushi bar.
China Buffet Chinese Rstrnt	Richmond, VA
Me again, The China Buffet buffet still has large selection but I think the quality has dropped a bit. Oh, its still good, just not as good as before. maybe I hit a bad night. The crab legs were plentiful but a bit dry to my taste.

The atmosphere is friendly, which is typical in an Irish Pub. A great place to dine. A great place to watch the game. Try it and it will become a regular place to go. less
Rockfalls Tavern	Richmond, VA
Still my favorite place to go on a Wednesday night. I think I've gotten addicted to the greek Pizza they fix here. As long as it is on the menu I'll keep coming back again and again!.
Sunday's Waterfront Restaurant	Midlothian, VA
Sunday's is no more. This is now Dockside and they serve very good brick oven pizza.
Chinamen's Buffet	Colonial Heights, VA
Yes this is the best Chinese buffet in the area. At least to me. The food is spot on, fresh, diverse, and hot. The two long buffet tables do offer many selections, some usual but some new.

The two long buffet tables do offer many selections, some usual but some new. Try the steamed dumplings!! There is a salad table but I never have room for it. But if you have room, go for it. I'd rather go to the desert table and get a bit of soft ice cream. I've been here 4 times, took my employees here for Christmas lunch and they loved it!!! less
Saigon Gourmet Restaurant	Midlothian, VA
Yes, in my opinion is one of the top Vietnamese restaurants in Richmond. My wife likes their fried pork salad and I like the chicken or shrimp. The prices are resonable and the food is excellent.

My wife likes their fried pork salad and I like the chicken or shrimp. The prices are resonable and the food is excellent. I think service can be a bit slow sometimes when they are real busy. Has not kept us away though. less
Pasta Luna	Virginia
Yes the ambiance of Pasta Luna is good. And so is the food. It's very noisy and crowded. I agree, people come here for a tasty, bountiful meal with a lot of friends and as a result there is a very very very long wait. And yes you MUST have wine w ... more Yes the ambiance of Pasta Luna is good. And so is the food. It's very noisy and crowded. I agree, people come here for a tasty, bountiful meal with a lot of friends and as a result there is a very very very long wait. And yes you MUST have wine with your meal, but I do with every dinner. You should leave with lunch for the next day. I've not been upstairs so don't know what it is like. less
Anita's Mexican Food	Burke, VA
This is a restaurant chain that must have started when they had the Mexican food market all to themselves. They have very high prices for very little food so it's the only way you could explain their sucess. It's fast food at high prices. Not ... more This is a restaurant chain that must have started when they had the Mexican food market all to themselves. They have very high prices for very little food so it's the only way you could explain their sucess. It's fast food at high prices. Not much better than Taco Bell or other similar places. less
Olive Garden	Fredericksburg, VA
This is Olive Garden and as the others say, a long wait but well worth it. The salad and breadsticks are often great and the service is usually good. The menu is standard but changes and portions are large. You won't leave hungry. But save room f ... more This is Olive Garden and as the others say, a long wait but well worth it.
